(2.0 units)

(1.0 unit)

This AEP course explores American culture, with particular focus on an introduction to the student culture of an American University. Students learn to communicate effectively in both academic and social settings by completing guided interactive assignments both on and off campus.

Course work covers classroom and learning styles, communication skills for seminars and lectures, and politeness strategies. The use of technology and social media for academic discussion is also addressed.

Students have opportunities to speak to international and domestic students already engaged in their major subjects. Preparation for successful group and team work is provided. Students work on public speaking skills and present a final oral presentation on an aspect of American culture.

The course aims to develop the critical thinking, listening, and reading skills of students. Coursework provides students with tools and resources to improve their academic English and study skills with a focus on active listening and reading, asking critical questions, evaluating information, and developing arguments.

The course uses subject material commonly used in undergraduate coursework to offer students a variety of listening tasks and readings to practice and improve their critical thinking and analysis skills.

Students demonstrate learning through projects, presentations, quizzes, a mid-term examination, and a course portfolio.

During this course, students explore the development of an area of art or music in America and the way in which the development of the art form has been influenced by changes in culture. Students practice and improve skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening through reflection and discussion of such changes and their impact on the arts. A focal area is selected by the instructor, based on opportunities for students to experience the artistic activity or music in the local community. In the winter quarter, the focus is on film; students have the opportunity to explore this medium during the Santa Barbara Film Festival. Students create a historical time line to illustrate cultural changes and artistic interrelationship.

The final assignment is the creation of a personal e-portfolio of the student’s artistic experience during the quarter.

Where does this water come from? How did it get there and what were the impacts of getting it there? Water is a critical resource for the existence of natural ecosystems and human societies; however, our use and management of this resource are on an unsustainable trajectory that is leading to a shortage of reliable and clean water sources. This water crisis is never more evident than in California and other rapidly urbanizing population centers in the arid southwest.

This course provides an overview of the hydrologic cycle, water sources and supplies, water policies and practices, as well as the water-energy nexus, and conservation and efficiency efforts. After successfully completing this course, students will have an understanding of water, it’s historical and current use, and conservation techniques that can be applied to real life situations.
