PWR 2 courses focus on developing strategies for presenting research-based arguments in both written and oral/multimedia genres. Through in depth research and oral presentations on a specific cultural object or phenomenon, students in this course will explore questions of culture and taste - what makes it good, what makes it bad, what makes it mid. We'll read texts in literary, visual, film, and media studies, as well as works of culture criticism on fads, trends, and subcultures, in order to produce our own written and spoken criticism. A full course description and video can be found here: pwrcourses.stanford.edu/pwr2/pwr2re For the PWR course catalog please visit https://pwrcourses.stanford.edu/ Enrollment is handled by the PWR office. Prerequisite: PWR 1.
