What does it mean to think critically about gender and sexuality in a time of political and cultural instability? How do scholars approach gender and sexuality studies as a field of practice? This course analyzes concepts of gender, sexuality, and sex using a pluralistic approach. Drawing from a wide range of theories and practices that traverse scholarly disciplines and practice-based study, it offers students opportunities in relation to their own particular fields of study, via a range of assignments that are applicable to their interests. An interactive discussion-based style offers students various modes, including break-out discussions and informal in-class group activities. The course readings, media, and deliverable assignments are in a variety of formats, including historical literature, case studies, critical and journalistic texts, as well as personal narratives and creative storytelling in order to arrive at the current moment of the debates surrounding gender. The integration of student-authored projects as a means of approaching project-based learning is the underlying goal of the course.
