This course welcomes you as a member of a grand community of learners through an interdisciplinary study of representative samples of literature, art, mathematics, and music of various periods and cultures from prehistory to the Renaissance. It is the study of the interrelationships among the arts and how philosophies emphasize an understanding of human nature and the values of human life.<\/span><\/p> <p id=\"h.p_ID_65\" class=\"zfr3Q\"><span style=\"color: #583a24;\">This is a discussion-based class. Unlike a lecture-based class where students listen to the professor talk, take notes and have an opportunity to ask questions, this discussion-based class puts you in the driver\u2019s seat. In this class your professor\u2019s job is to help direct and encourage class discussion, not to lecture. In this classroom you are responsible for your own learning; your professor is here to help. You should view your professor in this class as a partner on this exciting academic journey. <\/span><span style=\"color: #583a24;\">Learn more about the course <a style=\"color: #583a24;\" href=\"https:\/\/instruction.austincc.edu\/thegreatquestions\/course-details\/\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expect Great Things &nbsp; Expect to read challenging and enriching texts.
