CS-0111-1 DR Distribution Area: MBI The Emergence of Literacy Melissa Burch The majority of adults are able to read fluently. However, when children learn to read, the process is dependent on a number of skills and requires a great deal of adult guidance. In this course we will discuss the cultural importance of literacy across societies and throughout childhood. We will focus on the development of the complex skill of reading, including phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, and higher-order processes that contribute to decoding and text comprehension. Because instruction can play a determining factor in children's acquisition of literacy skills, we will study early reading materials and examine strategies that are employed in the classroom to facilitate the acquisition of these skills. Evaluation will be based on class participation, a series of short papers, and a longer final project. Cumulative Skills: WRI, QUA MW 09:00AM-10:20AM ASH 222 CS-0112-1 DR Distribution Area: MBI Introduction to Programming in Python and Pygames Jaime Davila This course is designed to give students a strong introduction to computer programming, with an emphasis on programming computer games. As the title reveals, we will be working in the Python programming language. By the end of the course successful students will be able to write programs of moderate difficulty, and will be able to use the Python pygames library to make use of graphic utilities with which to implement computer games. As a course that can provide a strong foundation for further computer science courses, this class will expose students to input/output operations, if-else structures, loops, functions, objects, and classes.

The topics covered will include modeling (the building of 3D objects), shading (assignment of surface reflectance properties), animation (moving the objects over time), and lighting (placing and setting the properties of virtual light sources). Due to the large amount of material being covered, additional workshops outside of class may be scheduled. Cumulative Skills: IND MW 10:30AM-11:50AM ASH 126 CS/NS-0177-1 DR Distribution Area: MBI, PBS Aliens: Close Encounters of a Multidisciplinary Kind Salman Hameed This course can be summed up as: everything you wanted to know about aliens but were afraid to ask (a scientist). The course will explore the topic of extraterrestrial intelligence from the perspective of several different fields. We will look at the history of UFO sighting claims and analyze the reliability of eye-witness testimonies, explore psychological and sociological reasons behind claims of alien abductions, and analyze the current state of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) from the perspective of astronomy and planetary research. We will also examine how film and television have shaped our view of aliens in popular culture. We will conclude the course by looking at religions that have been inspired by UFOs and extraterrestrials. Cumulative Skills: WRI M 06:30PM-09:20PM FPH WLH CS-0184-1 DR Distribution Area: MBI Creative Game Design: from Analysis to Implementation Joshua Newman This class will explore, through a series of projects, the fundamental questions of game design. What are the common features of hopscotch, Skyrim, boxing, Farmville, poker, and Tic-Tac-Toe? How do you create an engrossing, challenging, vivid, or surprising environment of play? How do you determine the value of skill, chance, cooperation, and competition in play? What effect does the social, sexual, gender, political, and economic environment of the game's creation have on the game play? This course will start students with theoretical structures and immediately move to their implementation through the development of small games, which will be either physical (card games, board games, etc.) or computer games, at the student's discretion. Students will be evaluated based on class participation, online discussions, and the creation of their own games.

Nef (1899-1988), with the assistance of the economist Frank Knight, the anthropologist Robert Redfield, and Robert M. Hutchins, then President of the University. The Committee is a group of diverse scholars sharing a common concern for the unity of the human sciences. Their premises were that the serious study of any academic topic, or of any philosophical or literary work, is best prepared for by a wide and deep acquaintance with the fundamental issues presupposed in all such studies, that students should learn about these issues by acquainting themselves with a select number of classic ancient and modern texts in an inter- disciplinary atmosphere, and should only then concentrate on a specific dissertation topic. It accepts qualified graduate students seeking to pursue their particular studies within this broader context, and aims both to teach precision of scholarship and to foster awareness of the permanent questions at the origin of all learned inquiry.

SUPPORT CONNECT AMPLIFY RENEW We support humanistic knowledge by making resources available to scholars and by strengthening the infrastructure for scholarship at the level of the individual scholar, the department, the institution, the learned society, and the national and international network. We work in collaboration with member societies, institutions of higher education, scholars, students, foundations, and the public. We seek out and support new and emerging organizations that share our mission. We commit to expanding the forms, content, and flow of scholarly knowledge because we value diversity of identity and experience, the free play of intellectual curiosity, and the spirit of exploration—and above all, because we view humanistic understanding as crucially necessary to prototyping better futures for humanity. It is a public good that should serve the interests of a diverse public. We see humanistic knowledge in paradoxical circumstances: at once central to human flourishing while also fighting for greater recognition in the public eye and, increasingly, in institutions of higher education.

  • Masquerading Mothers and False Fathers in Ancient Indian Mythology
    BY WENDY DONIGER The Gonda lectures are organized every year by the J. Gonda Fund. The J. Gonda Fund was established in 1993 under the auspices of the Royal Nether­ lands Academy of Arts and Sciences�nd has the task of administering the inheritance bequeathed to the Academy by the Sanskritist and lndologist Professor J. Gonda. Published in this series: H.W. Bodewitz: J. Gonda, 14 April 1905-28 July 1991 t?93 C.Of':DA LECTURE First Gonda lecture, held on 29 October 1993 on the premises of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences Masquerading Mothers and False Fathers in Ancient Indian Mythology BY WEN DY DON IGER r r. IN TROD UCTION Professor Jan Gonda, in whose honor this lecture is given, was a scholar of extra­ ordinary productivity and extraordinary scope: his expertise ranged from the most ancient period, the Vedas, through all the texts of the classical Sanskrit pe­ riod. In attempting to produce a lecture worthy of his legacy, I have decided to trace a central but little studied Indian myth through this same broad span of Indian civilization. It is also, I think, fitting that this lecture be devoted to the Indian treatment of a myth that is told throughout the world, for it allows us to see the particularly Indian qualities of the myth in question. If a myth is a story transformed by time, Indian stories are the most trans­ formed, and hence the most mythical. Moreover, Hindu myths differ from those of monotheistic cultures in allowing, or spelling out, the maximum num­ ber of paradoxes, in exploiting the possibility of paradoxes, maximising the number of problems (unlike Biblical myths which tend to solve problems).

  • REL. 324: the Hindu Vision
    Prof. Joseph Molleur Prall House 101 [email protected] Office Phone: 895-4237 REL. 324: The Hindu Vision Aim of the Course The main focus of the course will be the attempt to understand the central components of the Hindu worldview, by a careful reading of some of the tradition’s classic texts. This will include a study of such things as creation myths, the vedic gods and goddesses, karma, reincarnation, ways of liberation, the relation of the individual Self to the universal Self, divine descent, dharma, caste, and the place and role of women. The course will conclude by reading portions of the autobiography of Mohandas K. Gandhi, to give an indication of how the ancient ideas and customs studied earlier in the course have influenced and inspired modern adherents of Hinduism. Educational Priorities and Outcomes 1. Students will acquire, integrate, and apply knowledge relating to multiple expressions of the Hindu religious tradition. 2. Students will read and analyze challenging texts, speak clearly and listen actively as we discuss those texts, and write essays explaining their understanding and interpretation of those texts. 3. Students will connect with diverse ideas and with people whose experiences differ from their own as we explore how Hinduism has been understood and practiced in India and South Africa over the course of many centuries. 4. Students will respect the ways spiritual well-being may contribute to a balanced life by learning about Hindu practices of meditation and devotion. This course supports the Educational Priorities and Outcomes of Cornell College with emphases on knowledge, communication, intercultural literacy, and well-being.
