Scope and content
This series documents Professor Warkentin's role as a teacher. Files include course materials such as course outlines, reading lists, assignments, tests, exams and essay topics. The most extensive file are lecture notes which include hand written notes that are accompanied by copies of articles and examples of literary works that Warkentin usually annotated. For some courses these are organized by lecture while for other courses they are arranged by the name of the author being studied. Also included in this series are course evaluations. These are anonymous questionnaires completed by students.
Of particular note are the files relating to course ENG 356F. They contain extensive notes on exploration authors as well as supporting documentation, often annotated by Warkentin. Warkentin eventually published a course anthology in 1993 titled Canadian Exploration Literature: an anthology. These notes would have served as the basis for this publication.
Finally, there is a manuscript of the first lecture Prof. Warkentin gave in 1958 early in her career at United College, Winnipeg.
Arrangement is by course with the evaluations placed at the end of the series. The courses for which there is documentation are listed below.
