LV-Beschreibung
Intendierte Lernergebnisse
Students will exercise critical thinking skills in analyzing and assessing visual artefacts relevant to American history and culture. They will learn to appreciate the dynamics of the image-creator’s intentions and the perceiver’s reception. Students will also have ample opportunity to elaborate and present their own analyses and perspectives within the context of a peer-based environment.
Lehrmethodik inkl. Einsatz von eLearning-Tools
Lessons will be conducted online. Students will be expected to complete regular homework assignments, individually, in pairs or in groups. Participation in class is considered an essential component of the course.
Inhalt/e
The course examines images - visuals in a broad sense - and how they serve to shape, condition, even manipulate people in their perception and conceptualization of American history, values, ideology, and heroes/villains. The images in question range from a portrait of George Washington to the video of the murder of George Floyd, from a statue of Abraham Lincoln to the storming of Capital Hill. The selection of material is necessarily eclectic, and will include student input, but will cover central themes of American cultural identity.
