Course overview/description
The seminar-based Global Perspectives course helps students to follow and deconstruct arguments, to separate fact from opinion, and to assess and evaluate the truth of claims. Related skills involve knowing where to look for information, how to construct arguments, and how to assemble and handle evidence. This course takes key themes of global issues and encourages you to explore them in an open, critical, and disciplined way from a variety of perspectives. You will explore the themes that arise from an investigation of a global issue, such as ethics, economics, environment, technology, politics and culture. While a variety of issues will be discussed and explored at various levels, this course is more based on skills development than on specific content.
