Not Just for Oprah Anymore: Incorporating Book Clubs into Political Science Classes
Cooper, Christopher A.
Journal of Political Science Education, v15 n3 p365-376 2019
This article describes a four-part book club in a political parties, campaigns, and elections course. Self-reported survey data and anecdotal evidence suggest that the book club was a successful learning tool. Specifically, students who enrolled in the book club reported increased classroom capital, significant learning, enjoyment with the book club, and general satisfaction with the assignment. The article concludes with potential barriers to implementation.
