Description
Class Experience
This class is taught in English.
Students will gain a greater understanding of the complexities of international relations, how to manage and juggle multiple serious scenarios at the same time, the importance of diplomacy, and the scope of international influence.
I have a degree in Political Science with a concentration in International Relations and a minor in history. One of my favorite classes in college was one that was similar to this, and it had a strong impact on all of us who participated! I also have a graduate certificate in gifted education, which is especially important for classes like this where we want to promote higher-order thinking skills for students of all ability levels.
Students who do not complete the assignment in the first class will be asked to finish as homework before the next class. There will not be other homework assigned in the class.

3 hours per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Political topics often bring up ideas that are controversial or emotional for everyone. The class will be reminded of the importance of mature discourse, and how to agree and disagree with their classmates in appropriate ways.
