Health Behavior and Health Education “Students will use these images to discuss the effectiveness of photography as a tool for social science research as a component of community organizing.”

Religious Studies “Students are writing response papers that bring these images into conversation with our readings from philosophy, theology, and social theory as they explore how these central social values are given shape through different media.”

Page 23: Teaching with images  media spring 2011

Environmental Studies “Students from the honors section of fall 2009's Environment and Society (ENST 201H) chose art from the Ackland to install in the Study Gallery for this spring's class, Water and Human Rights (ENST 225H). These works reveal the different ways water has been understood and depicted in diverse societies and eras. They devised a paper assignment the current students will undertake.”
