"These three papers explore interdisciplinary undergraduate learning in the context of a residential college at Michigan State University. Tianyou Kou (doctoral student, German Studies) maps the ways that students adopt digital methods to interpret and reflect on their learning about “The Role of Sports in Society.” How do students use data visualization to analyze text, creating and editing their own digital platform to explore issues of performance and nationality? In her paper, “Film & History: A Pedagogical Exercise in Interdisciplinarity,” Alyssa Lopez (Assistant Professor, History and Classics) explores the successes and limitations of students’ integration of film studies and historical approaches in a short course on Black film history. Lopez explores whether and how such integration allows students to better understand African American history and contemporary social issues. Melvin Peralta’s (doctoral student, Department of Teacher Education) research challenges the quantitative-qualitative binary in Higher Education. “Teaching at the Intersection of Quantitative Literacy, Feminism, and Foucault: A Pilot,” explores the structure of the two pilot lessons from an interdisciplinary social studies course, reflecting on student perceptions and negotiations of the quantitative/qualitative division, and possible steps moving forward. Comprised of early career scholars, this interactive panel will include extensive time for discussion. "
