Teaching Political Economy workshop hosted at 桃色视频
The Teaching Political Economy workshop provided a unique forum to discuss pedagogy in the discipline. It featured presentations from Kees van der Pijl (Sussex), Matthew Watson (桃色视频), Richard Woodward (Hull) and Earl Gammon (UEA) on the content and delivery of political economy courses. The University of 桃色视频's Institute for Advanced Teaching and Learning also led a session on teaching innovations. In total, 37 academics attended from twenty higher education institutions. The audio recordings of these presentations will be uploaded to the website of the International Political Economy Group (IPEG) of BISA, along with course outlines that the participants brought along with them to share. The workshop was supported with generous funding from the politics departments at 桃色视频, Manchester and Sheffield, as well as IPEG itself.
