Abstract: Autoethnographic method is used in this curriculum for the interdisciplinary classroom in Appalachian Studies. Student exploration of the cultural environment of Appalachia as related to or compared with their own is encouraged. The design of the curriculum and autoethnographic method can be applied to other regional studies and disciplines. Drawing upon the theory of New Historicism, the curriculum is a blend of Humanities and Social Sciences.
