SUMMARY:Teaching Medieval Women Nottingham CPD Day
DESCRIPTION:Monday 16 June 2025 – NTU Events and Conferencing Centre\, Newton Building\, Burton Street \nThe Teaching Medieval Women CPD day is intended as a forum to share our experiences pf teaching\, to showcase new examples of medieval women with presentations from academics and teachers\, and to collaborate on and co-produce materials to understand how we can best to support the teaching of this topic and attract and engage a new generation of students. \n\n\n\n\nTeaching Medieval Women is part of a wider project which through collaboration between teachers and academics seeks to bring new research on the lives of medieval women into the teaching of medieval history at school. This project was borne out of a shared realisation that women are often under-represented in many of the medieval history classes taught at\, especially\, KS3 and further up the curriculum as well. We hope to remedy this by bringing together teachers and academics to share our respective knowledge and expertise and to co-create a variety of materials that are attractive\, engaging – and free – to use in the classroom. \n\n\n\n\nThe CPD day will include: \n\nTalks by leading academics on different examples of medieval women\nDiscussion panels on how to incorporate materials into teaching\nResource design workshops\nA complimentary lunch and teas and coffees throughout the day\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed speakers for the event on 16th June include: \n\nDr Natasha Hodgson (Nottingham Trent University)\n\n\nDr Ellie Woodacre (University of Winchester)\n\n\nProfessor Jonathan Phillips (Royal Holloway University of London)\n\n\n\n\n\nWe would also be very interested to hear from teachers who would be interested in contributing on the day\, by giving a talk or taking part in a panel\, sharing perhaps their experiences of or their thoughts on teaching medieval women. \n\n\n\n\nWe previously ran a CPD event at Nottingham Trent University in June 2024 and this event proved to be an engaging one. When asked to score on a scale of 0-5 how useful they found the day\, attendees responded overwhelmingly positively with half of respondents rating the day as 5 or ‘very useful’. We would love to see teachers who attended last year’s event at this year’s event if possible to see how they may have incorporated examples of medieval women into their teaching. \n\n\n\n\nThe event is free to attend\, however spaces are limited and so we advise to register your place as soon as possible through Eventbrite. We also ask if you could let us know if you cannot attend so we can ensure others can attend. \n\n\n\n\nThe deadline for registration is 9 June 2025. \n\n\n\n\nIf you have any questions\, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me at Catherine.gower@ntu.ac.uk.

SUMMARY:Royal Historical Society Lecture: Natasha Hodgson – ‘Dangerous Journeys: Framing Women’s Movement in the Medieval World’
DESCRIPTION:This talk is available to attend in-person or online. For more information\, visit the RHS website. \nMedieval society is often thought of as static\, unchanging\, and underdeveloped – yet the period we now call ‘medieval’ represents one thousand years of human history during which seismic changes in ideas\, technologies\, demography and cultures took place. Similarly\, when looking at medieval women\, historians have often tended to focus on and reinforce accounts of restrictions on their power and movement\, even though their experiences could vary considerably according to social\, cultural\, economic and geographical factors. Those able to break this mould were considered ‘exceptional’. \nRecent scholarship\, especially on queenship and female lordship\, has successfully challenged this model and argued for a shift in perception of how we view female power to recognise its extent more fully. However\, women’s ability to move around the medieval world\, and its significance in terms of our understanding of women’s experiences\, has not quite yet been subject to the same lens. \nWomen who left their homes and travelled\, whether temporarily or to migrate\, are still often viewed as largely exceptional. However\, from the eleventh century onwards patterns of movement and migration intensified\, governed by local subsistence crises\, the growth of urban centres and the search for new trade routes as well as lands to settle. \nIn the Latin West\, pilgrimage and crusade brought further spiritual dimensions to this process\, as well as increased visibility and justifications for the women who took part in them. Many faced criticism\, or at the very least concerns about the dangers posed to women’s personal and spiritual safety\, yet this did not prevent a substantial number of women from all social classes moving around the medieval world. \nThis lecture argues for an expanded view of women’s movement in medieval society. It will consider how and why women moved through the medieval world in a literal sense\, often travelling long distances for social\, economic and religious purposes – even after their deaths. It also considers their opportunities for movement\, and the extent to which they chose their own paths freely. \n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Biography\nDr Natasha Hodgson is an Associate Professor in History and Director of the Centre for Research in History\, Heritage and Memory Studies (CRHHMS) at Nottingham Trent University in the UK. \nNatasha’s research has focused on medieval and early modern social and cultural history including women\, gender and masculinities\, as well as encompassing Digital Humanities projects based upon Domesday Book and Fifteenth Century genealogical rolls. Most recently she was a consultant on the British Library exhibition Medieval Women: In Their Own Words and co-founded teachingmedievalwomen.org\, a collaborative project between academics and teachers to revitalise and expand the teaching of women’s history in medieval provision at schools (2022-present). \nNatasha wrote Women\, Crusading and the Holy Land in Historical Narrative (Boydell\, 2007)\, and is a co-editor of Crusading and Masculinities (2019)\, Religion and Conflict in Medieval and Early Modern Worlds (2020)\, and Miracles\, Political Authority and Violence in Medieval and Early Modern History (2021). She is also an editor of the journal Nottingham Medieval Studies and two Routledge series: Themes in Medieval and Early Modern History and Advances in Crusades Research.

It will highlight the variety of ways in which we can investigate and learn about how women held\, expressed and wielded power in the medieval world. \nSpeakers include \nDr Natasha Hodgson – Nottingham Trent University \nProfessor Jonathan Phillips – Royal Holloway University of London \nDr Ellie Woodacre – University of Winchester \nJake Unwin – Girls’ School Day Trust \nAfter a break for refreshments\, the second part of the workshop will run from 6.15pm to 7.30pm held in the Learning Centre. It will be an interactive\, participatory session with the opportunity to co-create resources with academics and teachers from examples in the exhibition for classroom use. \nRegister for free on the Eventbrite: https://bit.ly/BritishLibraryTeachingMedievalWomenCPD1

SUMMARY:Leeds International Medieval Congress Panel
DESCRIPTION:The Teaching Medieval Women team will be chairing a round table panel at Leeds International Medieval Congress 2024. \nTeaching Medieval Women: Facilitating Knowledge Exchange between Schools and Academia – A Round Table Discussion\nThe Teaching Medieval Women project is a collaboration between teachers and academics to bring the experiences of medieval women into the teaching of medieval history at school. This project was born out of a shared realisation that women are still substantially under-represented in many of the medieval history classes taught at school in the UK\, at KS3\, KS4\, and A-Level. The women and themes we highlight derive from a diverse geographical\, religious\, and ethnic spread\, emphasising a fresh and\, in part\, non-European perspective to the study of the medieval period in schools and colleges. The group aims to bring together teachers and academics to exchange our respective knowledge and expertise\, to learn about the challenges involved in driving change forward\, and to develop solutions\, as well as producing a variety of co-created materials that are attractive\, innovative\, engaging\, and based on recent historical scholarship and educational pedagogy. \nThis discussion panel incorporates the core team of the Teaching Medieval Women project\, and we will reflect and invite discussion on teaching experiences\, the delivery of CPD for teachers\, co-creating materials\, and how to develop a sustainable future for the teaching of medieval women in UK schools and across the globe. \nParticipants include Zara Adaci (Claremont High School)\, Vicky Brock (North London Collegiate School)\, Sam Jones (Bolder Academy\, Twickenham)\, and Elena Woodacre (University of Winchester). \nRegister for IMC here.

SUMMARY:Peter Symonds College CPD Day
DESCRIPTION:Teaching Medieval Women is part of a wider project designed via collaboration between Teachers and Academics to bring the lives of medieval women into the teaching of medieval history.
