Abstract
This article reflects on the practice of teaching and learning cultural studies in the context of South Africa. It reflects on the curriculum design and teaching experiences of the “Cultural Studies in Practice” module of the Bachelor of Social Sciences Honors in Culture, Communication and Media Studies offered at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The module is centered around a compulsory three-day field trip to the KwaZulu-Natal Battlefields Route in South Africa. While the battlefields visited are commemorations of past military mobilities, this article reflects on how mobilities is central to the curriculum design, pedagogies, and practices of the cultural studies module through (1) the field trip and (2) the mobile pedagogy of walking.
