The Geographer's Craft

This course is designed to function as a gateway to the discipline for Geography majors.  Students successfully completing this course will be able to demonstrate the basic knowledge set and fundamental research skills necessary to engage in upper-division course work offered by the Department of Geography. 

Course Description

The student will be introduced to the various conceptual and practical concerns that figure prominently in Geography as disciplinary craft.  The student will also be introduced to the epistemological foundations of geography and the basic methodological tools used by disciplinary practitioners.  Course content and skill building exercises will be delivered to the student via a series of on-line learning modules. 

 After completing assigned readings and studying selected demonstration models, the student will engage series of short assignments whereby the student will exhibit competence with or mastery of the subject, concept or procedure introduced in the reading and demonstration model. 

Some semesters, this course will be offered on-line and in other semesters it will be offered in the standard classroom format.
