KRSG 1 Academic Literacy and Ethos: Learning in Community
Teaches foundational practices for intellectual and personal development in an academic community: analysis, critical thinking, metacognition, engagement with others across difference, and self-efficacy. Framed by three overarching questions: How do I learn? Why do I learn? and From whom do I learn? Students read in different genres and formats and engage in peer-to-peer learning and collaborative discussion. Assignments include reflections on reading and discussion, an oral history project, and a creative project. (Formerly Academic Literacy and Ethos: Power and Representation.)
