Class description
In this course, we will explore work and storytelling – what we do and how we talk about it – as part of everyday life. Using ethnography, anthropology, gender studies, psychology, sociology and history we will examine what we mean by culture (with a particular focus on work) and how we tell stories about ourselves and each other. Students will gain, in addition to tools for critical thinking and communication, basic film production skills by making a short film.
