Laura Madokoro and Team Awarded ECampus Ontario Grant to Develop New Course

History Professor Laura Madokoro is part of a project team, led by Dr. Asha Varadharajan at Queen’s University, that has been awarded a $90,000 grant from ECampus Ontario to develop an online course titled Race, Migration and the Canadian Nation. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach, the six course modules will draw from the expertise of our six course authors – using a postcolonial framework to examine literature, history, sociology, race, racism, diaspora studies, digital humanities, settler colonialism and citizenship. Each module will be designed to stand alone for maximum re-usability throughout the eCampus Ontario member institutions. More information on the initiative of which Laura’s project is a part can be found here.
