MoEML’s Pedagogical Partnership Project comes to fruition! This month, we
published our first encyclopedia article prepared by a group of students at
another institution working under the guest editorship of their onsite
instructor.
Professor Peter C. Herman ably guided fourteen
upper-level undergraduate students (Ryan Brothers, Shaun Deilke, Amber Dodson,
Elaine Flores, Alexandra Gardella, Roy Gillespie, Ashley Gumienny, Mark Jacobo,
Karen Kluchonic, Alyssa Lammers, Cassady Lynch, Douglas Payne, Andres Villota,
Andrea Wilkum) at San Diego State
University through the ins and outs of early modern research in order
collectively to produce a nearly 6,000-word scholarly article on the Blackfriars Theatre.
Their excellent new contribution includes details of the repertory, theatrical
practices, architecture, and audiences of both the first and second Blackfriars Theatres, as well as information on
some of the key figures (including Richard Farrant,
James Burbage, and his sons, Richard Burbage and Cuthbert
Burbage) involved in both theatres’ history.
MoEML would like to thank Peter
Herman and his class for being such intrepid and enthusiastic pilot
participants in our pedagogical experiment. We think the results demonstrate
just how successfully instructors can enagage their undergraduate students in
scholarly research. Furthermore, their work has the wonderful potential to help
students elsewhere learn more about early modern London. Indeed, MoEML has received
positive feedback from another scholar
who has already used this new article on the Blackfriars in her own teaching. Congratulations, Peter and SDSU students!
