This document showcases an 8-part modular structure for an Introduction to Global Humanities course created by Humanities Faculty Ruth Wollersheim in 2022 for a sabbatical project for Century College in White Bear Lake, MN. It includes original modular overviews written by Ruth Wollersheim followed by a collection of relevant learning materials for each module. Most learning materials can be accessed by students for free with the typical college library subscriptions and streaming services. The learning materials are interdisciplinary and multi-media. Each module usually includes 2 journal assignments, 2 discussion or group activities, and 1 quiz. The course culminates in an Art Inquiry Essay, which requires that students take a trip to a local museum (assignment description included).

Content Description
-
Minneapolis College, the most selected higher education destination of students from all Minneapolis Public High Schools, is located downtown, nestled between the hustle of Hennepin Avenue and the green spaces of Loring Park. As a part of the Minnesota State system of colleges and universities, Minneapolis College most serves those students who are least likely to go to college. With three-quarters of the student body composed of those underrepresented in higher education, the hallways are filled with recent immigrants, those seeking to learn English, members of communities with the highest unemployment and incarceration rates in the state, veterans, those of low socioeconomic status, seekers of diversity, and those who wish to serve them. Collected here are their stories, stories of overcoming, coming up, perseverance, pride, and power in the face of depressed opportunity and systemic oppression.
