The STUFF of History is an integrated course activity that combines the knowledge, skills, and attitudes of materials science and history of technology. The term “integrated” applies to every aspect of this course: both instructors are present at (nearly) all times; both instructors assess every major assignment jointly; every major assignment contains elements from both portions of this course; and you receive one grade for all eight credits. We think that that this integration comes very naturally: the subjects complement one another and the use of two perspectives produces a deep, provocative understanding.

Fall 2010 Ahse 4190: Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences Capstone: Information About Course: Course Syllabus, Robert Martello

Robert Martello

The AHS Capstone is an advanced, self-designed AHS project that builds upon a student’s prior experience in one or more AHS disciplines. All students must complete either an AHS Capstone or an Entrepreneurship Capstone in order to graduate. AHS Capstones must be proposed to the AHS Committee and approved by the end of the academic year prior to the Capstone except in extenuating circumstances. Additional information on the AHS Capstone is available at http://projects.olin.edu/ahs. AHS Capstone students will complete a proposal, a journal, a disciplinary deliverable, an analysis of their deliverable, and a presentation. Class sessions will vary between meetings …

Fall 2010 Ahse 1100: History Of Technology: A Cultural And Contextual Approach: Course Materials: Evidence Handout 2010, Robert Martello

Robert Martello

This course operates on three levels of inquiry and exploration. In the most detailed sense, we look at several major History of Technology themes, such as Technological Systems, Technology and Culture, and Technology and the Environment. We address larger historical questions, such as the interpretation of evidence and the combination of analysis and narrative. Finally, we conduct writing, presentation, creativity, and analysis exercises that contribute to competencies such as communication and contextual understanding.

Spring 2011 Ahse 1150: What Is "I"?: Course Materials: Assignment Information, Lynn Andrea Stein

Lynn Andrea Stein

This interdisciplinary exploration of identity draws on a diverse range of genres in the Humanities, Social Sciences, Arts and Sciences. Prior offerings have drawn from Anthropology, Artificial Intelligence, Biology, Film, History, Literature, Memoir, Neuroscience, Philosophy, Psychology, Political Science, Science Fiction, Sociology, and Visual Arts. Our goal is to understand how individual perspective (or the illusion of same) comes into being and how our own unique perspectives shape the way that we see the world. Emphasis is placed on communication and context.
