The Teaching Woody Guthrie Collective is a group of teacher-scholars, activists, and musicians who are dedicated to collaborating across disciplines to illustrate Woody Guthrie’s relevance in today’s precarious world. The purpose is to share teaching resources, exchange ideas for assessment, create interdisciplinary curriculum and contribute to the scholarship of teaching and learning.
We have served as educational consultants for the Morgan Library and are continuing to develop curriculum for faculty to use in the college classroom. Future goals of the Collective include offering symposia and conferences, creating a geospatial story map of Woody’s life and music, developing community-based and service-learning community projects, and designing additional teaching materials for the college classroom.
