Responding to Literature Through Student–Author Interviews: Eighth-Grade Students Challenge Chris Crowe’s Mississippi Trial, 1955
This study explores virtual, student–author interviews eighth-grade students led with Chris Crowe in response to his young adult novel Mississippi Trial, 1955. The opportunity to interview the author motivated students to read the novel. Through their text-world development, students connected with the fictional and nonfictional characters, Hiram Hillburn and Emmett Till, respectively. Through their critical reader-responses, students sought truth about Emmett Till’s case as they questioned Crowe about the choices he made as an author and researcher, which supported students’ understanding of character development and historical significance of Emmett Till’s case. Crowe’s answers to the students’ critical questions were not easy, but through the student–author interview preparation and implementation process, participants captured a shared understanding of Emmett Till’s case and how its connection to the U.S. civil rights movement impacted history and is pertinent today. Ultimately, this article advocates for reader-response pedagogy to include virtual or in-person student–author interviews
The Listening Body: Sound and the Sensory Apprehension of Movement
Through the Master of Fine Arts program at Emily Carr University of Art + Design my work has focused on the mediated moving body as my research investigates the concept of embodiment for joy, self-awareness, and self-reflexivity. Art is an ideal vehicle to explore different ways of knowing, beyond cognition, by encouraging feeling through aesthetic affect. I came into the MFA program with professional experience in film and videography and a background in the performing arts, which influences how I approach an audience of viewers and listeners. A significant development to my practice has been the use of sound as material, working with its illusory potential, and depicting the presence of the moving body through experimental processes and makeshift sound installations. My thesis research is driven by a desire to understand, through experience; sensory perception, embodiment, the palpability of human presence through sound, and how to apprehend features of the world by listening and generating a felt sense of the physical body in space.PerceptionSpatial soundSensoryAudience experienceMovementEmbodimentImmersiveVirtua
