Danish Culture
Students should understand key trends and works from Danish culture, recognize connections between these works, and be able to relate them to the development of contemporary Danish culture.
Analytic and Writing Skills
Students should be able to insightfully analyze important literary and artistic works from Danish cultural history and be able to communicate this analysis through articulate written and oral presentations in Danish. Students will also develop basic research skills.
Cultural Literacy
Students should relate the ideas and issues raised by the works we study in class to the students' own cultural moment as well as to their own experience with contemporary Danish culture.
Lifelong learning
Students should better know how to understand, interpret, and thoughtfully reflect upon the literature and art encountered later in life.
