[LS] Int Studio 1: Memory
Spring 2019
Taught By: Lynn Breslin
Section: CL2
CRN: 3786
Credits: 3
Memory is an action or process of commemorating, recollecting, or remembering a person, object, or event. How do these actions and processes shape identity and our understanding of the world? Language Supported Integrative Seminar 1 has two important goals. First, it will prepare students to read and write at the university level. Throughout the semester, we will work toward scholarly questions as we acquire the authority needed to write our way into existing intellectual conversations. Second, its relationship with Language Supported Integrative Studio 1 will result in critical dialogues between seminar and studio practice, or writing and making. This course shares a common theme with Integrative Studio 1 and at various times in the semester, the two classes share ideas, concepts, and assignments through bridge topics. In this way, it will bring together reading, writing, and making in a manner that is essential to the creative work of artists and designers in every discipline. The Parsons Learning Portfolio will be introduced and developed in the Integrative courses. This Language Supported (LS) course is specially designed for students for whom English is a second language. LS courses have the same content as non-LS courses as well as extra attention to vocabulary, cultural references, and support for reading and writing. Students will engage with the materials in a supportive and dynamic learning environment as they become acclimated to American educational context, culture, and expectations. Parsons LS faculty possess training specific to both the content area and language support focus.
