‘My Boyfriend Loves it when I Come Home from this Class’: Pedagogy, Titillation, and New Media Technologies

Minnesota State University, Mankato, USA, dennis.waskul{at}mnsu.edu

Most classroom uses of new media technologies lack a pedagogy, aesthetic, or both. Performance methods offer a pedagogy; sensual learning offers an aesthetic. Combined, the two comprise a powerful teaching strategy and one that is especially well suited to the use of explicit media in sexualities courses. This article offers some ideas about pedagogy and aesthetics, and, grounded in 35 student evaluations, explores the potential uses of new media technologies and sexually explicit media as a teaching tool.

Key Words: aesthetics • new media • pedagogy • performance social science • sensual learning • sexually explicit media
