History of Science, Technology & Medicine in East Asia

A course blog

Students taking this course extend and refine their individual research to develop and design a classroom exhibit about a set of artifacts in the history of science, technology, environment and medicine of East Asia. This project consists of 2 parts – the exhibit and a catalogue. The catalogue is a fully referenced, collaboratively written document that introduces and explains the objects and ideas. Each student team is also required to maintain a work log to keep track of their project activities and share their research abstract via audio.
