  • JS 117: Reading the Narratives of the Hebrew Bible

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    The first half of the Hebrew Bible-the books of Genesis through Kings-is a central text of Western culture. But how are these texts to be read? As history, myth, religious program, foundation of Judaism, foundation of Christianity? Using the tools of comparative ancient Near eastern languages and cultures, the history of religion, literary analysis, and folklore, we will explore the Bible's many faces, and try to show how the answer to the question is close to "all of the above." We will also view the texts through the window of later interpretation among Jews and Christians, and see how many generations came to view themselves and their own story through the ones presented in the Bible. Fulfills the Historical Perspective requirement.

  • JS 130: Suffering and Evil in Jewish Tradition

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    A central problem in Western religious thought is theodicy: how to explain the existence of suffering and evil in a world ruled by a supposedly benevolent God. Examines a variety of Jewish sources on the problem, which propose a wide variety of answers. Central are the biblical book of Job and its interpretations through the centuries; at the other end of history, responses to the Holocaust are considered.

  • LAS 038: Trial Advocacy

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    This course teaches the fundamentals of the trial of a case in a court of law. The students are expected to prepare and deliver oral presentations, simulated openings, closings and witness examinations during the semester. The culmination of the course is a series of trials in which the students are the attorneys and witnesses. This course is a prerequisite for participating on Clark's Intercollegiate Mock Trial Team.

  • MATH 101: Concepts in Elementary Mathematics I

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    This is a two-semester sequence designed for students interested in teaching elementary and middle school levels. The importance of mathematics education at the elementary school level cannot be emphasized enough. This is where the stage is set for a child's future success or failure in mathematics and the sciences. Proper mathematics instruction unifies different aspects of education such as listening and reading comprehension, oral and written expression, logical and critical thinking, problem solving skills, focusing on a task and developing work ethics and discipline. In teaching mathematics, an elementary school teacher faces great challenges. First, the developmental level of the students imposes natural restrictions on what can be taught and when. Second, mathematics can be understood only when a certain logical sequence is followed, when the knowledge is gradually built up, and constantly used and reinforced until it becomes "second nature". Third, a child has to be given the proper tools to succeed, in order to keep the level of frustration to a minimum. Although this course touches on all these different aspects of teaching mathematics, the emphasis is on understanding the main ideas of elementary mathematics, the logic behind the algorithms, the development of mathematical intuition, the proper sequencing of the topics, and the understanding of how mathematical concepts fit together, what they are based on and where they lead.

  • MATH 111: Diving into Mathematics Researc History of Mathematical Recreations

    0.50 Credits
    Clark University

    We will explore recreational mathematics—mathematical puzzles, games, and pastimes—through the ages. We’ll look at them in their historical context. Who used them and when, and if we can answer the questions, why, and how did they fit into their cultures? How did they connect to other recreational mathematics, and to mathematics in general? Can we determine their sources and how they traveled from culture to culture, if they did? We’ll see how they led to the development of some serious mathematics in geometry, number theory, probability, combinatorics, game theory, and topology. Note: This yearlong course is 0.5 unit per semester, and the full year is necessary to obtain credit. Math 111 does not satisfy any requirement of the Math major. Fulfills the Formal Analysis requirement.

  • MATH 119: Precalculus Mathematics

    1.00 Credits
    Clark University

    Intended for students who plan to go on to calculus. MATH 119 is to be used, when necessary, as preparation for MATH 120 or MATH 124 and does not satisfy any requirement of either the major or the minor in mathematics or computer science. Students should have a solid grasp of elementary algebra. Covers more advanced algebraic techniques (linear and nonlinear inequalities, quadratic equations, linear systems) and gives a rigorous look at elementary functions (polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric). Prerequisite:    A suitable score on the mathematics placement test.
