Down to Earth, Natures Role in American History, 2nd ed. Isenberg, Andrew C. The Destruction of the Bison Rachel Carson. Silent Spring Purpose and Objectives: This course is designed to give the student an appreciation of the many ways that Americans have interacted with the natural world and the effects they have had upon it. Different conceptions of nature will also be explored as they have been applied to social, political and economic relationships over time. To this end, the class will consist of lectures, films, slide presentations, student presentations and discussions. Our range of inquiry will be dictated, especially, by the original documents and secondary literature that we will be reading, however, throughout the course, there will be ample opportunity to explore students special interests. Note: This course is an approved upper division theme course for theme D. Grading: Standard Grading scale (100-90% = A; 89-80% = B etc...) Paper 20%, Examinations 70%, Participation 5%, Responses 5% (1000 pts. total) Research Paper: The student will explore a topic that they have selected dealing with a narrow question about the American environment. Future K-12 instructors should select a topic treated in the California curriculum. Your topic must have the approval of the instructor (before your summary statement is submitted). The paper project will be worth 200 pts. The paper should be typed and double spaced. Grades will be based on the student's ability to use original sources to support an interpretation, his or her use of library materials and overall presentation (grammar, organization, spelling). A written statement defining your paper topic (worth 5 pts.) will be due in class on September 22. The paper itself will be due in class on December 8. Late topic statements will lose credit and papers will lose of a letter grade each day that they are not turned in after these dates. Participation: Be active, alive, awake! Discuss works intelligently, bring up questions in class, and show that you have thought about the reading. Presentations and discussions will also be evaluated as will overall class etiquette Excessive absences will harm your grade. Examinations The first exam will cover weeks 1-4; the second exam will cover weeks 5-10; the third exam will cover weeks 11-15. Multiple choice, short answer and essay selection. A study sheet will be provided. Responses Students will respond to various questions over the reading throughout the semester. The Department of History has identified this course as addressing the desired Student Learning Outcome of promoting students abilities to use and cite secondary and primary historical evidence effectively. The paper will particularly address this goal. *** You must have a medical excuse from the student health center or on letterhead paper from your doctor if you miss an exam for medical reasons. If something unforeseen happens make-ups will be offered at a time convenient for the instructor. There are no make-ups of make-ups. ** Any student who has a disability of any kind that might prevent the fullest expression of her or his abilities should contact me the first week of the class so that we can discuss class requirements. Likewise, any student who foresees conflicts with assignments because of religious holidays should discuss these with me the first week of class.

Concepts/Theories common to all theme courses: Interconnectivity the ecological principle: highlighting the interrelationships that characterize the natural order and the place of humans in that order Unintended Consequences the precautionary principle: caution is the best policy when altering the environment, due to the difficulty of foreseeing all the consequences of human activity Plurality of Worldviews value pluralism: diverse interpretations of the relationships between humans and nature Disciplinary Perspectives problems of evidence: what counts as knowledge and what counts as evidence depend on criteria that are often discipline specific Issues common to all theme courses: Resource Use (Food, Water, Energy, Shelter) Human Population / Consumption Biodiversity Loss Global Warming / Climate Change Approaches common to all theme courses: Common vocabulary employing and explaining key terms across theme courses, for example, ecological consciousness, biocentrism and anthropocentrism. Spirit of Hope A solution orientation so students emerge from theme courses with ideas and direction to address humanitys current environmental crises California Reference to the special environmental problems and opportunities presented by Californias unique social, political, economic and ecological identity Sustainability Attention to the broader environmental questions raised by human development as concerns the economy, social equity, and the environmental consequences of human development Activities common to all theme courses: Ecological Footprint activities dealing with the impacts of various human production and consumption patterns Civic Engagement projects designed to take students outside the classroom to make an impact on the community with what they have discovered in class     !),-x     2 N O ^ m n ٺ٬٬Ąvk^SIh>OJQJaJh>>*OJQJaJh>h>OJQJaJhK>*OJQJaJhKhK>*OJQJaJhKhXeOJQJaJhBhBH*OJQJaJhBhBOJQJaJhXehXe>*OJQJaJhKOJQJaJh#GOJQJaJhK5OJQJaJhXehXeOJQJaJhXehXe5OJQJaJh$5OJQJaJ-.P O n o   !^gdXe  !^gdB  !^gd#G  !@&^gdXe  !gdXe  !^gdXen o  k r   q Kko|ضؘ؎؎؄zpzpfh$OJQJaJh>OJQJaJh1YHOJQJaJh3SOJQJaJhXeOJQJaJh@YOJQJaJhq|/OJQJaJhBOJQJaJhKOJQJaJhXehXeOJQJaJhXehXeOJQJhXehXeOJQJaJhXehXe>*OJQJaJhXehKOJQJaJ%  j k t u   Fxy  !gdXe  !@&^gdXe  !^gdXe0 u#wxy0rst~˷٭٭٭٣~tt~٣ghXeh1OJQJaJhBOJQJaJhBhBOJQJaJh3Sh3S>*OJQJaJh3SOJQJaJhXeOJQJaJh1OJQJaJh"OJQJaJh@YOJQJaJhXehXe>*OJQJaJhXehXeOJQJaJh@Y5OJQJaJhXehXe5OJQJaJ$TUst(@Aj  !^gdq|/ X  !^gdXe  !^gdXe X  !^gdXe  !gdXe~ '+09:KTWYil߶ʒtfh>B*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJphhXehs,OJQJaJh"hXeOJQJaJh"OJQJaJhq|/hs,OJQJaJhs,OJQJaJhq|/OJQJaJhXe>*OJQJaJh3aOJQJaJhXeOJQJaJhXehXeOJQJaJh>OJQJaJ(OK  !gdXe X  !^gds, X  !^gdXe  !^gdXe   !^gdq|/   !^gdXe#(COmңғoah1B*OJQJaJph$h"h">*B*OJQJaJph!hXeh"B*OJQJaJphhs,>*B*OJQJaJphhXeB*OJQJaJph$hs,hs,>*B*OJQJaJphh>B*OJQJaJphh"B*OJQJaJphhs,B*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJph".0<IJKMot}ն㶕ՂtcUGhB*OJQJaJphh1B*OJQJaJph!hXehMJB*OJQJaJphhXeB*OJQJaJph$hMJhMJ>*B*OJQJaJphh>B*OJQJaJph$h+]h+]>*B*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJphh1YHB*OJQJaJphhMJB*OJQJaJphh+]B*OJQJaJphh3aB*OJQJaJphKm?UVy X  !gdXe X  !^gdXe  !^gdMJ X  !^gdq|/  !^gd3S  !@&^gd1 @AFRV^mpxyҿң҇ykZң҇LұhYFB*OJQJaJph!hXeh3aB*OJQJaJphh3aB*OJQJaJphhXeB*OJQJaJphh+B*OJQJaJphh>B*OJQJaJphh1B*OJQJaJphh+]B*OJQJaJph$h+]h+]>*B*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJphhMJB*OJQJaJphh@YB*OJQJaJph7BCXYm X  !^gd$ X  !^gdXe X  !^gd+ X  !^gdB X  !gdXe  !^gdMJ  !^gdXe  79?@AUVWXYpqrչթ՘|kǘZLLh$B*OJQJaJph!hXeh$B*OJQJaJph!hXeh+]B*OJQJaJphhXeB*OJQJaJphhB*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJphhYF>*B*OJQJaJphh3aB*OJQJaJphh>B*OJQJaJphh+B*OJQJaJphhYFB*OJQJaJphh1YHB*OJQJaJphBVW.}qq  & F]gdXe  !^gdXe`gdXe X  !^gdXe X  !gd+] X  !gd1YH X  !gd$ X  !^gd$ !2BDIUVWߵwiXwE4X!hXeh1YHB*OJQJaJph$h1YHh1YH>*B*OJQJaJph!hXeh+]B*OJQJaJphh1B*OJQJaJphh+]B*OJQJaJphhXeB*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJph!hXeh$B*OJQJaJphh3aB*OJQJaJphh>B*OJQJaJphhB*OJQJaJphh1YHB*OJQJaJph$h^Ih$>*B*OJQJaJphW~."B"$,$$$%%%%%%&-&&ssdddRARdd hXehXe>*B*OJQJph#hXehXe5>*B*OJQJphhXehXeB*OJQJph(hXehXe5B*CJKHOJQJph%hXehXeB*CJKHOJQJphhXeh'0OJQJaJhXehXeOJQJaJhXehXeB*OJQJphhXeB*OJQJaJphh1B*OJQJaJphh@YB*OJQJaJph!hXehXeB*OJQJaJph./<uvP !!""B"p""""""# & FgdXegdXe & FgdXe`gdXeh`hgdXeh^hgdXegdXegdXe#$$%%%&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& P!1$^  !^gdXe  !^gdXeh^hgdXe & FgdXe&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&hphpOJQJhH jhH U hXeh'0hXehXeOJQJaJhXehXeB*OJQJph&&&  !^gdXe90 hP/ =!"p#$% Dp^ 2 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~_HmH nH sH tH D`D NormalCJOJQJ_HmH sH tH \@\  Heading 1$ & F<@&5CJKHOJQJkH'VV  Heading 2$ & F<@&56OJQJkH'TT  Heading 3$ & F<@&5OJQJkH'VV  Heading 4$ & F<@&56OJQJkH'PP  Heading 5 & F<@&CJOJQJkH'TT  Heading 6 & F<@&6CJOJQJkH'PP  Heading 7 & F<@&CJOJQJkH'TT  Heading 8 & F<@&6CJOJQJkH'T T  Heading 9 & F<@&6CJOJQJkH'DA D Default Paragraph FontViV  Table Normal :V 44 la (k (No List 4 4 Footer  !44 Header  !@Y@  Document Map-D OJQJTo"T `cDefault d1$ CJOJQJ_HaJmH sH tH \C@2\ XeBody Text Indent ^`OJQJPK![Content_Types].xmlj0Eжr(΢Iw},-j4 wP-t#bΙ{UTU^hd}㨫)*1P' ^W0)T9<l#$yi};~@(Hu* Dנz/0ǰ $ X3aZ,D0j~3߶b~i>3\`?/[G\!-Rk.sԻ..a濭?PK!֧6 _rels/.relsj0 }Q%v/C/}(h"O = C?hv=Ʌ%[xp{۵_Pѣ<1H0ORBdJE4b$q_6LR7`0̞O,En7Lib/SeеPK!kytheme/theme/themeManager.xml M @}w7c(EbˮCAǠҟ7՛K Y, e.|,H,lxɴIsQ}#Ր ֵ+!,^$j=GW)E+& 8PK!Ptheme/theme/theme1.xmlYOo6w toc'vuر-MniP@I}úama[إ4:lЯGRX^6؊>$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
