Abstract
The Feminist Keyword Project is a scaffolded series of assignments that culminates in a literature review of the student’s chosen keyword. It is designed for intermediate undergraduate students who acquired a foundational feminist vocabulary in their introductory classes. Building upon this baseline fluency, the project shifts students’ understanding of course concepts from a glossary of terms to politicized feminist gatherings. The project is informed by the tradition of the keyword entry genre to move students beyond merely defining their chosen term to narrating it as a site of feminist discourse in and outside of academia. In doing so, the Feminist Keyword Project engages students in the feminist praxis of research, writing, and citation.
