Short answer: A Core 330 course. A trip. An adventure of a lifetime.
Long answer: This COR 330 course is an immersion in Chinese history, media, and culture, with a focus on the 20th and 21st century. Our course will also emphasize play with new digital media tools, and explore with students how these tools can be used to collaborate and come to a deeper understanding of a culture and a place very different from their own. Upon completion of the course, students will have a basic understanding of the unique qualities of Chinese culture, an appreciation for China’s complex and varied histories, and will have spent 9 days on the ground in China in an intensive immersion experience designed to provide students with a first-hand look, up close and personal, at Chinese history, culture, and contemporary society. We plan to publish our student multimedia travel work with the Champlain College Publishing Initiative once we return.
