Courses, block seminars & workshops

I design and facilitate engaging learning formats for universities and cultural institutions—ranging from 90–120 minute workshops to block seminars and multi-week courses. My sessions combine visual analysis, narrative methods, heritage perspectives, and hands-on discussion formats (close reading, image labs, media case studies, collaborative mapping, reflective writing).

Good fit for: Environmental Humanities, Cultural Studies, Archaeology, Heritage Studies, Sustainability/ESD, teacher education, interdisciplinary graduate schools.

Lectures & keynotes

If you need an impulse that opens a theme and sets a shared language, I offer guest lectures and keynotes—also as part of lecture series, colloquia, staff weeks, or public programmes.

Curriculum design & teaching concepts

I support departments, teaching labs, and project teams with curriculum development, including:

• course and module design
• learning outcomes + assessment formats
• competency-based ESD integration
• bridge modules for interdisciplinary programmes
• teaching materials

Selected course themes

Below are formats I can teach as seminars, block courses, or workshop series. All can be adapted to your discipline and level.

Visual culture, media, ecofiction

• Climate Crisis & Future Earth in Film and TV
  How moving images build climate imaginaries: risk, hope, apocalypse, adaptation, justice.
• Re-Connecting Narratives in Film and Literature
  Narrative patterns, repair stories, more-than-human perspectives, ecofiction as cultural practice.
• Cultures of the Anthropocene: Film and TV as Negotiation Spaces
  Media as sites where nature/culture, responsibility, and future visions are contested.
• Narrating the More-than-Human
  Animals, plants, landscapes as agents in stories and images; implications for ethics and education.
• Ecofiction Lab: Writing, Reading, and Ethics in the Climate Crisis
  Ecofiction as speculative method; world-building; narrative responsibility; climate justice imaginaries.

Archaeology, heritage, deep time

• The Archaeology of the Anthropocene
  Material traces, heritage futures, waste, extraction, and the politics of preservation.
• Human–Environment Interaction in Ancient Societies
  Climate variability, resilience, collapse narratives, and what counts as “evidence.”
• Before the Anthropocene: Configurations of Nature and Culture in Antiquity
  Ancient ecologies, cosmologies, landscape imaginaries, and the long history of nature/culture.
• Heritage, Memory, and Climate Loss
  Loss, grief, and place attachment; “salvage” narratives; whose heritage is protected—and why.
