Learning Outcomes

These are the learning outcomes that are expected of students after completing a course.

	Recognize the relationship between inequality and social, economic, and political power.
	Analyze configurations of power and the forms of inequality and bias they produce.
	Evaluate dynamics of social, economic, and political inequality in relation to specific historical contexts.
	Interrogate the systemic processes by which forms of inequality are sustained and how these processes have been and are resisted and transformed.

Questions for Students

These are the types of questions you should be able to answer after completing a course.

	What are the relevant structures, institutions, ways of thinking, and practices that create, maintain, and change social, economic, and political inequalities?
	What practices have been implemented and institutionalized to address social, economic, and political inequalities?

Recurring Capacities

Every focus capacity course includes the following activities:

	Writing, totaling at least 10 pages in length or the intellectual equivalent
	Presenting material to the class, smaller groups, or the public through oral presentations, webpages, or other means
	Collaborating in pairs or groups to learn, design, solve, create, build, or research

These elements – referred to as “recurring capacities” – will help you repeatedly practice crucial skills for future study, life, and career success.
