Group Description

Transformative Learning in the Humanities (TLH) is a three-year initiative supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. This OpenEd CUNY group has been created as a repository for sample lessons, assignments, syllabi, and other OER materials that TLH faculty and students want to share with others.

TLH supports public talks, symposia, and workshops as well as a series of intensive peer-to-peer faculty seminars for CUNY faculty at all ranks (including adjuncts) in the humanities, arts, and interpretive social sciences. The program focuses on equitable, creative, student-centered pedagogical research and methods designed for the rich diversity of CUNY students; greater recognition for the importance of teaching; and the role of an urgent and indispensable humanities for the future of CUNY students and a more just and equitable society.
