Abstract

This short article shares the innovative pedagogic practices I explored and developed to nurture temporal reflexivity in the classroom to engage students in the study of the sociology of time in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and a local strike. It takes the reader through the module as it was structured and delivered in two parts: from calendars to calibration; and from memory to procrastination. This is interspersed with details of the learning exercises we undertook in the classroom and the module assignments.
