New Perspectives on Early Modern China
Teacher workshops in New York, Florida, and Texas that draw upon the digital resources of Asia for Educators to explore topics in early modern China.
Columbia University?s Asia for Educators program proposes to chair a network of on-line and face-to-face workshops exploring the topic of early modern China with teachers in three of the most populous states: New York, Florida, and Texas. Columbia will partner with two other institutions, the University of Florida in Gainesville and the University of North Texas in Dallas. Scholars of modern China at each of the three partnering institutions will work with teachers from their geographic area separately during some of the workshop sessions and scholars, teachers, and guest speakers will share ideas and lessons plans through video-conferencing at other sessions. The workshops will draw on the outstanding digital humanities modules on its website: http://afe.easia.columbia.edu, ?Recording the Grandeur of the Qing: The Southern Inspection Tours of the Kangxi and Qianlong Emperors? and ?China and Europe, 1500-2000 and Beyond: What is ?Modern??
