SoS #47 | Gayle Greene: Immeasurable Outcomes: Teaching Shakespeare in the Age of the Algorithm
Thomas Dabbs speaks with Gayle Greene about her new book, ‘Immeasurable Outcomes: Teaching Shakespeare in the Age of the Algorithm’ (Johns Hopkins). This book covers the history of coordinated attacks on humanities education and also examines the administrative obstacles placed on teachers in general in the modern classroom. She pushes back on these forces by using the responses of real students in an actual college Shakespeare class.
