CRES 141Learning with the Land

5 creditsGE PE-EUndergraduateStudent Option

A sustained inquiry into the place of land in the process of learning. Drawing from Indigenous and diasporic ways of knowing, this course invites students to shift normative paradigms of study--so as to learn with the land and not only about it. With some instruction conducted outdoors, students deepen their relation to their local surroundings--and think critically about how they have been formed by colonial histories. The course examines the role of land in various visions of decolonization. Students build sociohistorical literacy in land struggles of the past and present.
