LAS 218 - Self In The Context Of Others: You Are Now Entering The Identity Zone

3 hours
Individuals spend a lifetime trying to answer questions like Who am I? How do I fit in? How do I relate to others (and how do they relate to me)? and How can I make my mark on the world while also making a difference in the lives of others? Using the classic science fiction television show The Twilight Zone as a backdrop, individuals will explore Erik Erikson’s psychosocial theories of identity development and life history and the historical moment in order to gain a better perspective on our self within the context of others. This exploration includes the examination of cultural, societal, contextual, political, and religious factors that contribute to, and affect, an individual’s identity development throughout the lifespan as well as their impact on, and interrelationship with, others.

Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing.
