Get paid to read Dickens and play with LEGO this summer
I am looking for 1-2 Penn undergraduates who want to get paid to read Dickens and play with LEGO this summer. Specifically, I need help prototyping curricula, readings, and course assignments for 1) a Spring 2027 Penn Global Seminar called "London in the Time of Cholera: Sewage, Sickness, and the Stink of Empire" and 2) an ongoing series of classroom experiences based on the LEGO Serious Play method.

I participated in the James Merrill advanced literary research scholarship program. I am part of the research and translations teams for Discentes.
