Amod Lele deposited Ethical revaluation in the thought of Śāntideva in the group
Buddhist Studies on Humanities Commons 7 years, 8 months agoThis dissertation examines the idea of ethical revaluation — taking things we normally see as good for our flourishing and seeing them as neutral or bad, and vice versa — in the Mahāyāna Buddhist thinker Śāntideva.

Paula Curtis replied to the topic Lightning Class Presentations in the discussion
East Asia DH on Humanities Commons 7 years, 9 months agoI also admit I went “oh man, only 5 minutes?!” when I first read your post! I think it’s a great way to get them workshopping their ideas, though, especially to get more of a low-stakes presentation feel over a general class discussion about their progress. We do a digital pedagogy lightning talk series here at UM by graduate students and…[Read more]

Molly Des Jardin started the topic Lightning Class Presentations in the discussion
East Asia DH on Humanities Commons 7 years, 9 months agoYesterday I had my students do 5-minute talks about their final projects, with 5-minute Q&A between each. There were a total of 9 presentations. They complained about this time limit much more than I expected, arguing that they’ll “never have a 5-minute conference presentation.” Au contraire! This is becoming much more common, especially at DH…[Read more]
