Pedagogy

While I teach within the discipline of political theory, I regularly incorporate multi-perspectival practices within my syllabi and treat my classes as communities of inquiry embedded within the relevant broader political communities, both local and transnational. 

In 2025, I collaborated with the Harvard University Bok Center's Learning Lab to employ a range of projective and sensorial technologies to invite students to spatialize, visualize, and audialize border practices. Students are tasked with creating their own assemblage of border practices through putting together maps, imageries from a documentary viewed in class, and various readings from the course.

In 2026, I partnered with the Occidental College Center for Community Based Learning and ImmigoLA, a LA-based non-profit organization that supports migrants in underrepresented areas. Together we developed a group project for students, with which they will produce videos that would support migrants in preparation for their citizenship tests. As part of the production process, students individually attend the citizenship classes offered by Immigo, and upon producing the preliminary video drafts, we visited Immigo as a class to get feedback and learn from both the organizers and the broader community. You can see below a sample video produced by this class (the other videos, in both English and Spanish, can be accessed via the same Youtube channel):
