PWR 1JPA: Writing & Rhetoric 1: Learning toward the Future: Education in Changing Times
Is higher education primarily a pathway to a career, or is it designed for you to learn about yourself and how you can contribute to the world? Is it possible for higher education to achieve both of these goals? In this course we will consider the concept of liberal arts education and address how college should prepare students for adult life. By working with education theorists as wide-ranging as Diane Ravitch, Ken Robinson, William Deresiewicz, and Stanley Fish, we will frame the debate and set the stage for your own investigation.
