Beyond Google: How to Research in the Humanities | Summer / Short course | Humanities & Culture | Online/Distance | 8 weeks | UC Berkeley Summer Sessions | USA
"Beyond Google" will take you, step by step, through a process that will give you the knowledge and skills necessary to do the research your advanced classes require. With Mary Shelley's Frankenstein as our shared text, we will explore the research process, learn to move beyond generalities, discover new approaches to reading, and achieve the ability to join a scholarly conversation. We will pay close attention to mastering the tools that will open up a world of scholarship, and that will allow you to engage it with confidence. This course will teach you about the purposes, objects, and methods of humanistic research, and will prepare you to undertake original research projects of your own.
