LS 102 - An Introduction to College-Level Research in a Liberal Arts Setting
Credits: 2
An introduction to the basics of academic research in a discipline. The internet age has made the ability to sift through and make sense of overwhelming amounts of information not just valuable, but essential. But, how does one evaluate and use information for effective research? Students in this course learn how to apply critical thinking to turn general curiosity about a topic into knowledge, grounded in research and supported by evidence. Students will learn to ask the right kinds of questions, find credible sources, determine an author’s argument and effectively communicate a research topic. May be repeated for credit.
Distribution Requirements: None.
This class is intended for high school students who have not matriculated at a college or university. Synchronous online course (remote only).
