How is interdisciplinarity changing the shape both of higher education and of knowledge in general? How can technology enhance interdisciplinary education and collaboration? Students work with faculty advisors to create their Interdisciplinary Studies contract, and work to develop a personal learning network that they can expand and cultivate during the course of their undergraduate education and beyond.<\/p><p>This course is a Technology in the Disciplines (TECO) course.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-85ff658\" data-id=\"85ff658\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-87c938a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"87c938a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Objectives<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54df8e1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"54df8e1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Satisfactory completion of this course will enable a student to:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identify the key PSU stakeholders in the IDS major (peers, profs, admin.)<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Articulate the requirements of the PSU Interdisciplinary Studies program<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Partner with a scholar-advisor as their mentor<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Present a polished Interdisciplinary Studies essay and contract<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Define \u201cinterdisciplinarity\u201d, informed by existing models<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Articulate their own educational philosophies and plans for interdisciplinary studies in multimedia and written formats<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a Personal Learning Network (PLN) to develop connections to their scholarly and professional communities of practice;

There are two reasons for this. First, if you miss classes, there is a good chance you will fall behind. We will be moving quickly through much of the work and the stakes are high (passing this class is absolutely required to succeed and continue as an IDS major). Second, this class is a community. It probably won&#8217;t feel like that on day one, but over the course of this semester, one of our goals is to build the trust and camaraderie that is vital for a community to succeed and thrive. When people don&#8217;t show up, the community withers.\u00a0<\/p><p>For various reasons, I need to take attendance at the beginning of each class. This attendance has no direct relationship to your grade, however. I also need to keep a seating chart for students who are attending class in person, in case we need to do contact tracing because of the pandemic.<\/p><p><strong>If you know you&#8217;re going to miss class(es), I encourage you to reach out to me beforehand.<\/strong> We can then make a plan to be sure you stay on top of your work as best as possible.\u00a0<\/p><p>If I notice that you&#8217;re missing class, I will reach out to you. <strong>My main concern is you &#8212; I want to make sure you&#8217;re on track to be successful in this class.<\/strong> There are lots of reasons why students miss class, and I don&#8217;t need you to justify those absences. But, at a certain point, too many missed classes may make it difficult for you to finish the work and pass this class. If you hear from me, don&#8217;t panic. Let&#8217;s just set up a time to talk and figure out what&#8217;s next.<\/p><p>The university has <a href=\"https:\/\/campus.plymouth.edu\/faculty-governance\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2017\/05\/PSU-Excused-Absence-Policy.pdf\">an excused absence policy<\/a> that I am required to link to, but it doesn\u2019t really apply to what we do.
