This course will examine current research exploring the relationships between brain and cognitive development. Starting with the prenatal period and working up through adolescence we will discuss theories, research, and results in this rapidly expanding field of investigation. These topics will be considered in relation to both typical and atypical development.
In this course students will create new works that engage ideas of social, racial, and climate justice as central to our discussion and visual inquiry. Through artist research, short readings and prompts, students will use drawing as an expansive medium to conceptualize and relate their ideas. This course is experimental in nature and will have no defined emphasis on traditional drawing techniques, instead we will take an expanded/interdisciplinary media approach to drawing, to explore how critical questions of social justice can be developed into impactful artworks.
In this class, students will acquire hands-on experience in diverse aspects of the research process in any field of Biology, from familiarizing themselves with a research topic, generating interesting questions, designing experiments, acquiring technical skills, collecting and analyzing data, to writing and/or presenting their results. To inquire about enrollment, students should approach a Biological Sciences faculty member to identify mutual areas of interest.
