Abstract
This presentation speaks to the use of textiles and fabric samples in a classroom setting, and how these objects can stimulate discussions around audience, purpose, and socio-economic power structures. It discusses a sampling of textile artifacts from the Georgia Tech Archives collections, followed by examples of how they have been used with students in a first-year writing class, and closes with lessons learned from incorporating these non-traditional materials into primary source instruction.
