By approaching issues from a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives, the students will learn to think critically about the world and explore ways to comprehend and solve global dilemmas. Case studies will help students better understand the systemic forces that shape societies and their relations on the international stage. Sessions: New topics responsive to current affairs will be introduced every week.
Metas de aprendizaje
The class has two main goals. One is to provide students with a basic factual knowledge of the various issues/problems of world affairs and international politics of the modern world. Just as important, however, is the ability to use this information productively to evaluate, synthesize, or interpret key facts and ideas. Students will learn how to integrate factual data into some basic understanding of how the modern world works and the world issues which concern policymakers and citizens today. This class will thus emphasize the development of cognitive skills such as source analysis, logical inferences, and interpretation.
