Humming Along

'For the sake of humanity'. It's a simple answer to why someone becomes a Humanities teacher, yet it captures the profound responsibility of educators who shape students' empathy, integrity and capacity to make informed decisions about our world's future. Katrina Davey understands this calling intimately - and she also knows the tough situations that can undermine it: out-of-field teachers thrust into unfamiliar subjects, the constant battle for adequate class time and maintaining student engagement during the era of artificial intelligence. Humming Along is Katrina's response to the challenges facing Humanities education. Drawing from her successful track record of building thriving faculties, she offers practical strategies that can make teams hum - from helping anxious graduates master multiple disciplines to convincing leadership of Humanities' vital role in developing the 'heart' that makes students truly human. With concrete tools for curriculum design, authentic assessment and faculty collaboration, this book provides a roadmap for creating engaging Humanities courses where both teachers and students discover the genuine wonder of exploring our world together.
