Dynamic discussions? Activism? Engaging Education? & getting 5
credits for it?!?
e² Class Mission
The e² class provides a space for students to theorize and engage in their
education. Students will also come across activism in an academic
environment. This seminar is student-run and student-focused,
emphasizing progressive models of education and non-traditional
classroom settings. The class will focus on the importance and need for
student empowerment, student voice, and student movement. Students will
be asked to engage in critical dialogue and thinking, collectively,
deconstructing the current educational structures and systems, we are a
part of. Students will also personalize class topics and discussions by
reflecting on any social political and/or cultural identities they
carry with them and exam their position within larger institutions.
Students will explore non-traditional forms of expression, learning,
and resistance such as art, dance, music, and theater. Students will
critically analyze the limitations of coalition building and
deconstruct our differences as potential links to each other. Students
will also be gaining some knowledge about the history of activism on
the UC Santa Cruz campus, emphasizing importance and value of students
in the process for change.
