Digital Pedagogy Specialist
Lukasz Chelminski is a doctoral candidate in history at the CUNY Graduate Center. He has taught at Brooklyn College, The Cooper Union and Queens College. He is currently a digital pedagogy specialist at the Baruch College Center for Teaching and Learning and was previously an instructional technology fellow at the Macaulay Honors College at CUNY. His dissertation is provisionally titled Émigrés as Aneks. It follows a group of Warsaw University students whose protests in 1968 are met with an anti-Semitic government campaign that forces many of them into exile, where they create a publication that will be sent back into Poland as a way to stay in touch with the milieu they left behind. He is currently translating the dispatches from Ukraine of Paweł Pieniążek, a Polish journalist and war correspondent, which are being published on The New School’s Democracy Seminar website.
