---------- Forwarded message ---------- Call for Papers: International Medieval Congress '99 University of Leeds, 12-15 July 1999 Session Title: Teaching Applications for REED Collections One of the problems facing the scholarly community today is the claim of "lack of relevance" of primary academic research to the general public, including the average student in college or university. In order to challenge such assumptions, one or more organized sessions relating to the topic "Teaching Applications for REED Collections," will be proposed for the International Medieval Congress, July 12-15, 1999, University of Leeds. This session is designed to encourage dialogue among drama scholars about their teaching methods, ways in which they make REED materials accessible to students, thereby demonstrating the relevance of these materials in a variety of contexts and disciplines. You are invited to submit an abstract for a paper or interactive presentation demonstrating how you have taught using primary documents in the Records of Early English Drama (REED) publication series, materials illustrating the history of drama and entertainment in England prior to 1642. If you are preparing a paper for the volume Teaching Applications for REED Collections that I am editing, you are encouraged to consider proposing it for this session. Interactive presentations illustrating classroom technique are also welcome. Please send me the following information (which is required on the Leeds Organised Session form) via e-mail or regular post no later than 15 September 1998: 1) Title of paper, abstract of no more than 100 words 2) Your name (as it should appear in the program) 3) Institutional affiliation 4) Office mailing address 5) Office telephone and fax number 6) Home address 7) Home telephone and fax number, if applicable 8) E-mail address 9) Language of delivery 10) Any equipment needed, e.g., Overhead Projector, Slide Projector, or Audio Cassette Player Elza C.
