Resources for Teaching & Learning
Even more than other parts of Digital Yoknapatawpha, this section is a work in progress. We've been building it since August 2020 - and we'd love your help with that process. If you use DY with your students, please let us know how the experience went, and if there are ways in which we can improve the materials here to suit the needs of your classroom, whether it's online or not. And if you create resources for using DY to teach Faulkner's fictions that you'd like to share, please let us know. You can contact us at sfr@virginia.edu
