Within literary studies, Dr. Newman has published multiple articles on contemporary Cuban narrative, with an emphasis on the legacy of cultural hybridity left by the Cuban-Soviet Cold-War alliance.
“Since his arrival at Wofford eight years ago, Dr. Newman has become increasingly involved in the scholarship of teaching and learning, and he has published multiple articles and chapters on the integration of intercultural learning into language curricula,” said Dr. Stacey R. Hettes, Wofford associate provost for faculty development and professor of biology.
Dr. Newman is currently conducting research studies measuring the magnitude and durability of intercultural learning achieved through study abroad and measuring learning gains experienced by first-year students in an intercultural learning-themed interdisciplinary living-learning community.
