ENGL228M - Satirical Literature For millennia satire has used wit and humor for the purpose of social criticism. From Horace and Juvenal to South Park and Saturday Night Live, satire often reveals the vices, follies, and abuses of society toward necessary improvement. Satire confronts public discourse and asks citizens to question the often-unchallenged institutions of government, education, and religion. This course traces the role of satire in literature from the first through the 21st century, connecting the past with the immediate present, and demonstrating the role satire has played and continues to play in exposing individuals to the fallacies of their respective generations. Prerequisites: ENGL 109M or ENGL 110M. (Fulfills English or Humanities requirement).

ECE210M - Child Family and Community Relations This course will focus on how children develop within the context of their family, school/center, community and society, with a special emphasis on Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory. In addition to theoretical, students will study the cultural and generational perspectives, as well as a variety of other influences on the child and family. Through the use of evidence-based practices, students will focus on the benefits, barriers and strategies to partner with and engage families in their child’s education. Emphasis will be on the development of advocacy skills as students learn about community resources and family needs. A community service project will be required. Students are required to purchase a TASKSREAM electronic portfolio subscription.Course Pre-requisites: ECE100M and ECE104M
