Course Description
Whether you are in Tucson, your home town, or some other faraway location, your ideas about the place where you live - and about yourself in connection to that place - are represented all around you. Students in this online course, logging in from across the country and even internationally, will experience representations of culture in the community around them, and then create interpretive responses to those experiences. Through this course, you will explore cultural pathways in your community, which could include architecture, theatre and dance, food, music, cultural festivals, film, literature, and visual art. You will create your own itinerary of experiences based on what is happening in your community, and will present interpretive arguments about those experiences to the class through online video submissions. The course will culminate in a final paper in which you will present an overarching interpretive idea about the community you have explored.
