Spring Workshop: China's Millennials and Other Authentic Voices for Teaching about China

Join the University of Colorado Program for Teaching East Asia (TEA) for a one-day workshop on contemporary China on Saturday, April 16, 2016. The workshop will offer a variety of print and visual texts for teaching about China today. The workshop keynote is Eric Fish, journalist, blogger, and author of the highly acclaimed 2015 book, China’s Millennials: The Want Generation. Fish will share his profiles of Chinese youth and discuss how this generation is navigating a fast-changing China and challenging China’s status quo. Other workshop sessions will feature a set of authentic propaganda posters of the late-Mao era recently added to TEA’s lending resource library; TEA’s guide to the best websites and blogs on contemporary China; and contemporary Chinese short stories to enrich social studies and literature classes.  Participants receive breakfast and lunch, a copy of China’s Millennials, a set of short stories, other resources, and certificate for 6 contact hours of professional development.
