10	Approaches and disciplines Philosophical argument, literary analysis, historical contextualization, ethnographic method, visual/verbal modeling… The Humanities. All of them, all the time.
11	Fuzzies versus Techies Is Bodies in Place Fuzzy? What do you mean by “fuzzy”? Anything goes? It’s all relative? Not according to us: There is no “right” answer Better—no single answer Lots of different arguments in the humanities, not just one answer but many perspectives Not authoritative version of the works but different views, presented from different perspectives: team-teaching includes many different perspectives
12	IHUM is unique No other program emphasizes skills and approaches from different disciplines—hence team teaching in which different disciplines are represented A unique program prompting you to produce your own knowledge of the works you study Make your own arguments, don’t memorize and imitate ours Learn how to read for yourself, closely and critically Learn how different disciplines in the humanities read and interpret Move on in winter/spring quarters to apply these skills in a sustained course sequence based in one discipline
13	Your IHUM is different from other IHUMs Approaches: The particular combination of disciplines is unique Content: A range of materials—from a Platonic dialogue to a contemporary computer game; classics of west and east Structure: To prompt both deep thought about our assigned texts and comparisons among them, two passes through the material Assignments: conventional essays as well as a final multimedia project
14	Schedule and itinerary Lectures and sections The two runs Panfora Bookmark and frequently refer to our web page! Assignments Multimedia final project option!
15	Seminars are work too Formulating knowledge in common with others Engaging other points of view A collective process of discovery. Think stage performance. Panfora– the discussion section that never closes.
