Unfolding Futures: Chinese Genre Fiction and Cultural Crossovers
Join us for an exciting webinar that brings the future to the forefront of classroom discussion through the lens of Chinese and Sinophone science fiction. This 90-minute professional development session will explore how speculative fiction reflects the global challenges of today while inspiring students to think critically and creatively about tomorrow.
Led by experts in Chinese literature and education, this session will highlight how works such as Folding Beijing, The Wandering Earth, The Membranes, and Teaching Cats to Jump Hoops engage themes of social inequality, environmental change, technology, identity, and pedagogy. These texts open space for new conversations about cultural imagination, equity, and the role of teachers in shaping future-oriented learning.
Whether you're a literature teacher, a history educator, or simply looking to integrate global perspectives into your curriculum, this webinar offers valuable insights and resources for using genre fiction in meaningful, age-appropriate ways.
