EDU 5013 - Teaching Mark Twain

credits: 3.0
Designed for teachers who are interested in implementing an interdisciplinary Mark Twain curriculum. Participants will draw comparisons between Mark Twain’s life and his writings, and they will examine both the events and personalities that touch the author’s life while Twain and his family spent their summers in Elmira at Quarry Farm. A “total” Mark Twain experience will include access to the Mark Twain Archives, use of the Gannett-Tripp Twain Collection, and a field experience at Quarry Farm. This course can be used toward the Graduate Certificate in Mark Twain Studies.
