This course asks big questions about what creative expression is, how it influences society, and what role it plays in people's lives. Students will explore expression as social and cultural production, as intervention, and as a tool for social dialogue through assignments and small group activities that develop and refine key skills relevant to the humanities and social sciences. As part of this course students will participate in a series of tutorials that will help them build foundations for academic success (such as understanding the value of higher education, developing a growth mindset, and finding passion).
