SCLA 101 Transformative Texts:

Critical Thinking & Communication I: Antiquity to Modernity

Course Description

SCLA 101 is based on the fundamental premise that great texts inform and inspire students, encouraging their creative and imaginative capacities, helping students see the world from different perspectives and broadening their worldview. Students will examine a series of texts, seeking to understand the contexts in which they were produced, as well as what these texts mean to us today. What do these books tell us about the pains and pleasures of being human; the use and abuse of power; and the power and limits of human reason? What do these texts tell us about others and ourselves? How do they advance our self-understanding? How do they increase our understanding of other people and their perspectives? SCLA 101 is part of Level I of the Cornerstone certificate program. It fulfils the Written Communication and Information Literacy requirements in the University Core Curriculum. The course is dedicated to developing and enhancing the ability of students to write clearly, advance their understanding of rhetorical situations and choices; analyze and construct arguments as well as finding and evaluating sources.
