|
In person only |
Organization of Library Resources in Arts/Humanities: Learn to leverage library systems, digital archives, and special collections to access a wide range of arts and humanities resources. Selecting Resources in Humanities: Develop skills to identify and evaluate sources, understand primary vs. secondary sources, and use traditional and unconventional digital research tools. Writing Styles in Humanities: Understand various writing conventions in humanities disciplines, from analytical essays to reflective narratives, crucial for effective communication of research findings.
The Humanities studies human culture through history, literature, philosophy, and the arts. This workshop, "Exploring Humanities through Pop-Culture," empowers participants to use diverse resources such as 3-D objects, maps (real and fictional), newspapers, music, social justice and liberation art, realia, fan culture and art, and propaganda to enrich their research. These resources highlight the multifaceted nature of humanities studies, demonstrating how pop-culture can serve as a lens for examining societal values, historical contexts, and cultural phenomena.
