American Studies & History Online Summer Classes

american-studies-history-degree-programs-asuThe American Studies programs and the History degree program are now offering online (i-course) summer courses at ASU New College.

Session A

AMS 330 Documenting American Lives (i-course) – examines the ideology of the “American Dream” and the manner in which ‘social class’ shapes the life chances of individuals in different parts of the social class structure, from the underclass and the working poor, to the most wealthy sectors of the United States. The course draws on ethnographic studies and memoirs to explore these issues.   Associate Professor Gloria Cuadraz

ASU New College Online Summer ClassesAMS 326 Popular Culture (i-course) – This course provides an interdisciplinary investigation of the relationships between American life and popular culture. Beginning with definitions of popular culture and high culture, we will examine how pop culture shapes and is shaped by films, advertising, stereotypes, gender expectations, popular music, television, and American life as a whole.

HST 110 United States Since 1865 (i-course) – Examining American history from the post-Civil War era to the present, HST 110 will include an in-depth exploration of the 1893 World’s Fair as an example of Gilded Age America, and the use of Dr. Seuss’ political cartoons as sources of World War II isolationism. This course includes weekly assignments and short quizzes, and will encourage student participation and engagement through Voice thread posts and playing devil’s advocate with one another. Dr. Karin Enloe, Faculty Associate


Session B

AMS 335 American Biography (i-course)

AMS 326 Film and Society – This course looks at twentieth-century American culture and society through film. By viewing movies such as Breakfast at Tiffany’s, American Beauty, and Pulp Fiction, we will analyze and evaluate how motions pictures create a mirror of American society.  To that end, students will learn how to “read” these films as cultural texts that help us better understand American popular culture.

HST 100 Global History to 1500 (i-course)

SUMMER 2013 NEW COLLEGE GRADUATE COURSES

ASU New College Online Summer CoursesEach Graduate Studies program is led by an experienced Director and supported by dedicated and knowledgeable staff focused on your future success.

____________________________________________________________________________________

JHR 525:  Action Research  #46009 – Dr. Elenes      

On West campus – CLCC 199 on Mondays, Tuesdays, & Thursdays from 5:25-7:10pm

Summer C:  May 20-July 12

The topic and emphasis of this action research course is borderland methodologies as they relate to social justice and human rights. Specifically, we will examine two pieces of legislation that have impacted Arizonans in the last two years: SB 1070 and HB 2281, as well as comprehensive immigration reform proposed at the Federal level. Borderland methodologies are capable of examining the borders among various social groups and stakeholders as points of intersection where differences are exposed, and where the conflicts that ensue from these interactions are struggled over and negotiated. These borders are also places of transition and transformation. Borderland theories and methodologies offer us a flexible language and strategies to examine symbolic (but very real) barriers that divide communities along race, class, gender and sexual orientation, academic disciplines, and organizational structures. Borderland methodologies have clear applications for action research because they allow us to look in a nuanced way at the different groups seeking to examine community problems or issues including community leaders, activists, students, parents, NGOs, faith based initiatives, labor groups, cultural works, artists, and so forth.
