What is the Syllabi Collection?

Our syllabi collection contains a trove of information that reveals the vast ways Latin American cinema is taught in the United States and abroad. Cinegogía contains dozens of sample syllabi, in English and Spanish, from educators teaching in undergraduate and graduate settings, from large public and private research universities to small liberal arts colleges. These carefully crafted documents include course objectives, curated film selections, recommended readings, writing assignments, media resources, and detailed weekly schedules. In addition, syllabi contain well-worn pedagogical methods that have worked successfully, and innovations in teaching film that are being developed at the undergraduate and graduate levels. We invite faculty to use the syllabi in this collection as a valuable source of ideas, new films, and pedagogical approaches for their own courses; and to collaborate with Cinegogía by contributing syllabi of their own.
