Experiential education is best seen as we are doing some activity. Travel is one of the most natural ways to learn because it is so stimulating to the brain. We will discuss this phenomenon and discuss the overall impact of seeing travel as an educational foray. Roberson lived in Croatia for 8 years and in the Czech Republic for 12. We will discuss and focus on the main idea of his book: that travel is schooling.

The BBC/PBS series The Hollow Crown (2012) adapted four sequential Shakespeare English History plays in mini-series style. We’ll watch the series and (ideally) read the Shakespeare plays (Richard II, two parts of Henry IV, and Henry V). We’ll ponder Shakespeare’s nuanced and rueful look at leadership and the price to be paid for different leadership styles. The opulent series stars Jeremy Irons, Julie Walters, Tom Hiddleston, Judy Dench, and an A-List of British actors. Please watch the first episode before the first class, the second before the second, etc.

The frontier is that amorphous space between the town and the wilderness, between the violence we have become accustomed to and the savagery of the unknown. In True Grit a young girl crosses that space seeking justice for her murdered father. The class will examine her quest in the novel and the movies it spawned.
