Description
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 ÔÇ£integratedÔÇØ 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.
