Disability in the Classroom

Is anyone else engaging in bringiing disability scholarship and theory into their classroom?

To start things off, I'm currently reading Fish's latest -- Save the World On Your Own Time -- and am amazed and scared at the same time. His argument is simple, and makes a lot of sense, but I wonder where the things happen that he doesn't want us to do...

Welcome

Welcome to Falstaff's Quill -- a blog designed to talk about teaching, literature, theoretical approaches, their intersections and interpretations in a college setting.

The blog takes its name from that character in Shakespeare who is a Jack of All Trades -- philosopher, teacher, thinker, and much more -- because none of us are done learning how to do what we do.

Ideas on these topics are varied, and you contribution is gladly appreciated.
