An interdisciplinary seminar-style exploration of East Asian civilizations. This seminar is focused on innovative ways to teach about Asia. Some of the new teaching strategies we explore include using the Reacting to the Past game, geostrategic forecasting, examining the game of Go as a means to teach about Asia, and using comic books to learn about Asian history. The topics we explore include religion, colonial history, language and culture, as well as entertainment. The course is appropriate for those teaching in a wide range of liberal arts and social studies subjects, including: comparative government, geography, literature, world history and world cultures.
