SWS 205, The Poetics of Power<\/em><\/strong>
\nProfessor Allums
\nAn integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. When we think of poetry, we might tend to imagine attractive, rhyming verses
\nruminating on such conventional topics as love, beauty, or nature. But poetry is also an active, political force capable of remaking worlds. Reading widely across the humanities and social sciences, students
\nconsider the role of language (including its form, its content, and its expression) in both exercising and resisting power. Students examine poetic interventions from across geographic and historical contexts,
\nthinking critically about their various political functions. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>True Crime Stories
\n<\/i><\/b>Professor Bailey
\n<\/span>An integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. This course investigates the production, circulation, and consumption of true crime narratives in a variety of media like film, television, podcasts, online forums, and social media. By\u00a0<\/span>reading, watching, and listening both to true crime stories themselves and to popular and academic sources, students consider the genre\u2019s historical development and its current popularity. They conduct an in-depth research project into how these stories represent crime, criminality, and law enforcement\u00a0<\/span>and how they thereby shape cultural notions of justice and morality. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/span><\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>Mathematics in Fiction
\n<\/i><\/b>Professor Carswell
\n<\/span>An integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. Through an examination of some of the ways in which mathematics of all\u00a0<\/span>levels and specialties\u2013including cryptography, game theory, chaos theory, and more\u2013continues to be present in popular culture, students critically engage in discussion of the representations of mathematics in works of fiction in a variety of media, including films, plays, short stories, cartoons, and music. The extent to which mathematics is faithfully portrayed in fiction, either as obvious elements of a story or as principles subtly manifested in plot, is studied and critiqued, as is the use of mathematics as a vehicle to tell stories about the human condition. Through this process, students develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-<\/span>informed texts.<\/span><\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>Crime and Chemistry
\n<\/i><\/b>Professor Chapp
\n<\/span>An integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. From sarin, to cyanide, to stanozolol, small molecules have been implicated in terrorist attacks, true crime stories, and sports doping scandals. Students will explore crimes that involve\u00a0<\/span>a significant scientific component and examine them from a variety of different perspectives. Evaluation of case studies that appear early in the course will inform the development of independent in-depth research project related to the course topic. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of\u00a0<\/span>writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/span><\/p>\n

SWS 205 09,\u00a0K-Pop in the Zeitgeist<\/em>
\n<\/strong>MW 11:00 AM 12:15 PM
\nProfessor Chan
\nAn integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. K-Pop represents the first major genre of East Asian popular music to establish a significant mainstream following within the perceived \u201cWestern Hemisphere.\u201d The exploration of historical artifacts found in audio recordings, film, music videos, interviews, critic reviews will be used as primary sources to understand K-Pop\u2019s origins and appeal. Students will conduct in-depth research to theorize how K-Pop has evolved over time to accommodate its globalization. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>Consumption: Meat, Products, and Politics
\n<\/i><\/b>Professor Devries
\n<\/span>This course provides an integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. Consumption is a core part of everyday life. What we consume, how we consume, whether we consume, or if we will be consumed are questions that\u00a0<\/span>haunt media and cultural narratives, social development, and economics. Questions of consumption also determine the flourishing or exploitation of global societies. Students will develop evidence-based\u00a0<\/span>speculations about the ways we consume, and will produce a research paper and poster proposing\u00a0<\/span>ideas for how we might make processes of consumption\u2014whether of food, products, labor, or media\u2014healthier and more equitable. Students will also develop an understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/span><\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>You Are Here<\/i><\/b>
\nProfessor Ferrence
\nAn integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. We\u2019re all from somewhere, and now we\u2019re all here. Our locations \u2014 lived and otherwise \u2014 mean quite a bit about how we form relationships to ourselves and others, how our values manifest in our daily lives, and how we come to understand what \u201chere\u201d even means. Students will research and consider the various ways their personal locations and migrations intersect with broader cultural concepts of locality, history, and self. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, 21 St Century Global Migrations<\/em><\/strong>
\nTTH 11:00 AM 12:15 PM
\nProfessor Hernandez
\nAn integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105.\u00a0 Approximately 4 % of the world population are international migrants.\u00a0 In this seminar, participants study a series of significant case studies from Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas.\u00a0 We analyze a diverse array of written materials (newspaper stories, testimonials, fiction, etc.) and watch documentaries and feature films depicting the migrant experience around the world to complement the course readings. \u00a0Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, TBA<\/em><\/strong>
\nProfessor Herrman<\/p>\n

SWS 205, Quality<\/em><\/strong>
\nProfessor Kapfhammer
\nAn exploration of research-informed communication (reading, writing, speaking, and listening). You judge quality every day — in the food you eat, the friendships you build, and the technologies you trust — yet trying to explain what makes something truly good causes the answer to slip away. Students chase this elusive idea across disciplines, from philosophy to economics, and investigate whether emerging software tools improve or diminish the quality of writing and research. Through hands-on experiments, students define quality in a real-world context, measure it, and test strategies to improve it. Students engage with ideas by reading and listening to academic sources and build on those ideas by producing thesis-driven written and spoken texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, Terrorism
\n<\/i><\/b>Professor Kirschner
\nAn integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. Terrorism has profoundly affected modern life. Students will explore how popular discourse and scholars from a range of disciplines (such as history, sociology, psychology, political\u00a0science, and economics) analyze dynamics of terrorism and policy responses to it, while conducting an in-depth research project on a question related to the topic. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>Emerging Genetic Technologies: Promise and Peril
\n<\/i><\/b>Abbreviated Title: Emerging Genetic Technologies
\n<\/span>Professor Nelson
\n<\/span>An integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. Little more than a century since the word \u201cgene\u201d was coined to describe the basic unit of genetic inheritance, techniques such as CRISPR raise the possibility of reshaping the genomes of a\u00a0<\/span>wide range of organisms with unprecedented ease and precision. What about these technologies worries scientists and\/or members of the general public? What cautionary tales does history reveal? Who should make decisions about the funding, implementation, and regulation of biotechnology? Drawing on scholarly books, essays, and articles, as well as documentary film and media resources, students will explore the scientific, historical, and ethical dimensions of emerging genetic technologies, culminating in an in-depth research project focused on a biotechnology of their choice. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/span><\/p>\n

SWS 205, TBA<\/em><\/strong>
\nProfessor Niblock<\/p>\n

SWS 205, Dictators and Dictatorships<\/strong>
\nProfessor Pinnow
\nAn integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. The rise in authoritarian regimes and mindsets around the globe has raised concerns about the fate of democracy. Students will critically examine this development as part of an in-depth research project. The historical, cultural, political, and psychological dimensions of dictatorships are among the topics examined to understand their origins and appeal. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/p>\n

SWS 205, <\/b>Whodunits: Solving Mysteries<\/i><\/b>
\n<\/span><\/i>Professor Poynor
\n<\/span>An integration of communication competencies into research-informed learning, building on the skills developed in SWS 105. Students explore how mysteries are solved in popular media (including written stories, television shows and podcasts) and use this as a starting place to determine how mysteries are <\/span>solved and questions answered in academic contexts. As part of their exploration, students will pursue an in-depth project on a related topic of interest\u2014 such as a famous historical or modern crime, an unexplained phenomenon, or other question. Students will develop an early understanding of the role of\u00a0<\/span>writing, speaking, reading, and listening in the interpretation and production of research-informed texts.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
