Welcome to our Teacher Seminars 2008!

Led by distinguished scholars, our seminars are designed to give participants access to current scholarship and university resources in a variety of fields, to introduce them to innovative approaches to traditional ideas and subjects, to explore new pedagogical and curricular possibilities, and to provide a variety of cultural, social, and imaginative experiences, all in three of the cultural capitals of the world: Oxford, Cambridge, and Paris.

The Seminars take place throughout July (in Cambridge, July 6-13; in Paris, July 14-21; in Oxford, July 20-27) in university colleges and residences. They feature Study Groups on focused academic themes, including The Library and the Academy, Shakespeare in History, American History, Science and Philosophy, Visual Experience, and English Literature. There are also a wide variety of plenary sessions, all given by outstanding academics and intellectuals, and a comprehensive schedule of cultural events and outings, historical tours, museum and gallery visits, and free time for individual research and relaxation.

A number of Fellowships are available for participation in our Seminars. These are our Outstanding Teacher Fellowships and Career Teaching Fellowships. If you would like further details, please click here.
