Courses

The ongoing question here is how we can develop creative capabilities in each and every student in mass institutions.

I use literary and cultural study to teach history, social text, psychological depth, and problem-solving.  I try to help every student do several things:

  1. Understand how the larger plot of a particular course addresses and resolves important problem
  2. See how different courses fit together
  3. Translate acquired knowledge into active use
  4. Tie their B.A. knowledge to their future work
  5. Imagine and design creative projects from start to finish
