Writing 2 continues the work begun in Writing 1 on strengthening students' ability to write, read and discuss at the college level, with emphasis on literary and visual analysis, and research and argumentation skills. The course will revolve around a specific theme selected by the instructor.COURSE DESCRIPTIONThis course will focus on the landscape, writing and art of the North. How can we connect with this very special place on the planet, and what can we learn by studying it? Why might it be important for us, as writers, artists, and designers, to be aware of the current state of the Arctic? We will investigate and respond to the work of such contemporary artists as Richard Van Camp, Billy-Ray Belcourt, Teri Rofkar, Ron Reikki, Zacharias Kunuk and Ishmael Hope. Through many different modes of writing and reading, we will explore how we might connect with the Arctic in a responsible way to make art that matters
