Cross-cultural teaching brings its own special rewards and challenges, an experience in which politics, culture, and language become fascinatingly intertwined. Dr. Rob Davidson spent the 2015-2016 academic year teaching in Taiwan as a Fulbright U.S. Senior Scholar. In this presentation, Dr. Davidson reflects on teaching creative writing, American literature 1492-present, and contemporary Asian American literature in a cross-cultural environment at Tunghai University in Taichung City.
