SSCI 1700U – Reading Our World


Our world is full of stories – books, documentaries, TV shows, films and more – about the contemporary dynamics of globalization, law and order, war and peace, political power, love and hate, ecological crisis, and technological change. In this course, students learn to read, analyze and write about our world by exploring how salient texts respond to it and make statements about it. By reading the texts of our world with attention to their social messages and contexts, students hone their reading, writing, critical thinking and civic skills. The texts selected promote close engagement with current and relevant social issues and problems.
