The New Teaching and Research Pages at the MJP
This site is dedicated to helping teachers and students use MJP materials both in the classroom and in scholarship. You'll find here ideas for teaching various topics related to modernist magazines, research ideas geared to specific MJP journals, a wide array of tools for placing MJP texts in different contexts, and actual syllabi, course assignments, and student essays that have drawn on MJP resources. The site is designed as a hybrid: some of the materials on the teaching pages will appear directly on our website, while other materials will appear on the MJP's new instructional wiki, where users can help us build up the teaching site by posting ideas and tools themselves.
