Through the study, discussion and writing about selected literature of the Pacific Northwest and through the direct observation of our natural environment (field trips!) we will learn about the cultural and environmental factors that have shaped this region's landscape and literature. Our class will be encouraged to become sensitive observers of the area and to communicate our ideas about folklore, place & environment through small group and individual projects and presentations and written and oral dialogue.
