LYST 261 - Writing Pictures Painting Stories as Mindful Social Practice Semester Hours: 3 Periodically
This research course focuses on the interrelationships between literacy
and creativity. Students will participate in research projects
which explore the interface between functional texts and aesthetic
scripts, illustration as visual story, photography as visual poetry,
writing as an art form, lettering as design, the physicality of print,
how tools and materials influence composition, and the production of
texts as mindful social practice. Students will participate in:
[1] studio activities which focus on the construction of a variety of
functional and aesthetic texts; [2] research seminars which focus on
the implications for pedagogy of the physical, technological and social
practices associated with multi-media text construction; and [3]
ethnographic field work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. A
ten-hour field experience is required.
Prerequisites & Course Notes There is an additional materials fee. Completion of Phase I in the MA in the Teaching of
Writing Program, or completion of Phase I in the MSED in Literacy
Studies Program; or permission of the instructor.
