This course gives students the opportunity to explore current culturally relevant issues and topics. Through exposure to a variety of media outlets, students will gain a better understanding of how the United States sees itself and how cultural questions are being approached. Course participants will determine the foci of the topics covered (e.g. education, health, the arts) and address them in persuasive presentations. In addition, participants will individually explore the broader course topics within a particular state. Both activities will provide students with ample material to strengthen their discussion skills, to further develop their presentation and language skills, as well as to expand their knowledge on current cultural topics, both at the national and state levels. Students from the second term onwards: Please register by 1 April 2016 using the printed form you can find at "Weitere Links" (see top of page). Exchange students only: Please register by 14th April (4pm) via email to faussera@hu-berlin.de |
