Inhoud
Underlying the approach to this course is the idea that in order to become producers of knowledge, not just consumers, we must be fully aware of the skills and orientations that go into conceiving, implementing, and composing a text or a study. The course aims to further verse students in the basic building blocks of doing interdisciplinary feminist research by: (1) reading canonical feminist texts/studies that present different ways of doing feminist research (ethnographic, archival, literary, theoretical, etc.) and (2) having the opportunity to practice how to use various research methods (e.g., interviewing, observation, critical discourse analysis, textual analysis, archival analysis, etc.). Throughout this course, students will be honing their critical-thinking skills; building a corpus of texts, objects or phenomena; and engaging in substantial research and writing. The aim of the course is not to become an instant expert but rather to gain familiarity and experience with a rang.
