How might you design character sheets to understand Jane Austen's protagonists and their development through experience? Can asking students to role play historical and fictional characters of the 18th century help contextualize the artistic and controversial issues surrounding Wolfgang Mozart's operas? Brief presentations will provide attendees examples to spur their own innovative approaches in the second half of the session.
