Call for Resources: FHSAsia Pedagogical Resource for the History of Sci/Med/Tech in Asia

The Forum for the History of Science in Asia (FHSAsia) is a special

interest group of the History of Science Society that it devoted to

the history of science, medicine, and technology in Asia, with all of

those categories broadly and inclusively defined.

I'm writing briefly because the FHSAsia is in the process of compiling

pedagogical materials to be hosted on the "Teaching Resources" section

of our website. It can be very difficult to identify and access good

materials to teach the history of sci/med/tech as it relates to Asia,

and this forthcoming FHSAsia resource is meant as a service that will

help not just specialists in the field but also colleagues who would

like to integrate more Asia-related pedagogical resources into their

teaching of the history of sci/med/tech. With that in mind, if you

have materials that you would like to share please email them to

carlanappi@gmail.com. I will be compiling and uploading them over the

next several months. Resources might include:

- syllabi

- suggestions for primary or secondary source readings

- sample assignments

- links to useful web resources

- and, *importantly*, translations of primary source documents that

you don't mind sharing.

These materials will ultimately be posted here.

Please feel welcome to write with any questions or suggestions.

With all best wishes, and with apologies for cross-posting,

Carla Nappi (on behalf of the FHSAsia)
