※ 引述《lorcas (I am Frankie!)》之铭言： : 请问有同学知道此位老师/课程的上课状况吗? : 看前文,老师好像是教英文的,该不会这门课是用英文交授吧? : 恳请有修过或者知道哪边查的到课程大纲的同学解惑! : TKS 同学，我直接转贴联署发起同学转寄的课程资讯，我也还没修过，所以 大概也没办法回答你的问题。 只听说若非已经连署的同学，要选上的机会不高，因为名额并不多。 希望以下资讯对你有帮助罗。 Summer, 2008 Science Fiction Objective: The study of science fiction is one that informs how we understand our world at the beginning of the twentieth-first century, and explores the possibilities of our "cosmic beings." The writing of science fiction – starting from the fourth century before Jesus -- can be said a cradle for the emergence of the western civilization highlighting creativity, imagination, scientific speculation, and humanity. This course aims to examine science fiction through some of its most influential works in the novel, drama, short story, and film. Students are expected to respond to selected readings critically, and are invited to respond creatively as well. In addition, we will be watching and discussing several classic science fiction films. The class hopes to foster both the love and appreciation of this intriguing genre. By the end of the course, students are expected to have more than an understanding of this genre but a critical perspective of human civilization (and its possible extinction) in the imaginary world of advanced technology, global warming, time travel, extra-terrestrial life, space travel, human cloning, star war, and so forth. Requirements: 1. Please be on time for class and ready with questions for your groupmates. 2. Class participation and discussion: Please always preview the story before the class. Without previewing the story, you may find it difficult to join the discussion. 3. No Plagiarism.
