Alex Fishler’s Profile

This course is designed to help you turn observations and ideas into research projects that incorporate methodologies from multiple disciplines. My goal is to help you develop and hone skills this semester that you can use in university courses and in your life beyond the university, whether that be through hobbies or professional pursuits. I’m going to guide you by sharing interdisciplinary projects that I’m currently working on and ask you to chronicle your experiences and—potentially—share them with future students of this course. The first step is to decide what you’re interested in pursuing, and we’ll do this by thinking about the communities you belong to and the challenges impacting those communities.
