Cultural Diversity & Critical Thinking - defscarlett - 08-29-2024
Any thoughts on where else I can pick up these courses for TESU?
1. SOC-3220 Cultural Diversity in the US (3 Credits)
Cultural Diversity in the United States investigates and explains the cultural, racial, and ethnic diversities in the United States through the lens of sociological investigation. Using fundamental tools of sociological inquiry and cultural learning, students engage in a sociohistorical discovery of various waves of immigration, amalgamation, and assimilation to the United States. Political and policy initiatives that have affected diversity movements and the development of civil society in the United States are also examined.
Requisites:
This is an upper (300-400 level) level course and builds on the knowledge and skills of lower (100-200) level courses. Upper level courses usually require analysis, synthesis, and/or integration of knowledge and skills from several courses. Students should have successfully completed lower level courses in the Area of Study, Area of Study math requirements, and English Composition I and II prior to enrolling in an upper-level course. Students should have knowledge equivalent to an introductory sociology course. - Recommended to be taken either prior to or at the same time as this course, but is not required.
2. HLS-3550 Critical Thnkg for Hmlnd Secur (3 Credits)
This course offers an overview of critical thinking and its applications in the homeland security context. The focus is on essential elements of thought, asking the right questions, uncovering fallacies in reasoning, and statistical misrepresentations. Evidence evaluation in a homeland security setting is featured with several examples interpreting real-world information.

Looks like TESU accepts Sophia's and Study.com's as a LL Philosophy Course - PHI-1300 Introduction to Critical Reasoning.

Thanks but those aren't on there. Cultural Diversity would have been covered by the uExcel but since those aren't available. Just seeing if anyone else knows of anywhere else these upper levels could be found.

U of Phoenix has the first at around $400 per credit but looks lower level to me: https://www.phoenix.edu/online-courses/eth120.html
