This class is all about exploration. Even if you find yourself disinterested or bored by the main subject that we are covering, there are countless opportunities to find topics related to it that you will find interesting. I will be consistently updating the wiki pages with ideas and suggestions for things that you can explore on your own time in relation to materials we cover in class.
You are expected to keep an online journal that tracks your progress in exploring things in the Expanded Universe. For example, perhaps our discussion of Egyptian mythology has inspired you to become interested in that culture, and you have taken some time to watch a documentary about Ancient Egypt. Maybe Amadeus has gotten you into the music of Mozart and you downloaded a few tracks. Use your journal to discuss (in as much or as little detail as you wish) your experiences with these things. Are these interests newly found, or were they there before we covered the related topic in class? How do they apply to your daily life? To your other interests? Are you going to incorporate them into other aspects of your life? Are they just entertainment or perhaps something you may utilize in your path towards a career?
...
as you like,like in your journal, so long
...
to enjoy!
The final project will consist of at least three topics derived from your Expanded Universe, and will be discussed in both the syllabus and in person.
