Why PHST 1

This document outlines a PHST capstone class discussion on what PHST is as a field of study. Students will discuss in groups readings on the evolution of PHST and how it has been defined.

PHST 490 Capstone- Spring 2018

SUBJECT TEACHER GRADE DATE


What is PHST? Tyrone Freeman Senior PHST majors January 22, 2018

OVERVIEW (TEACHING ASSISTANT FACILITATION)


The readings are in Canvas (Curti, Hall, Payton, & Turner). They represent some thinkers who helped
shaped the field as we know it. I am also asking students to select one text that is most influential upon
their own thinking about what PHST is, which I think should be interesting. I've allotted 40 minutes for
the discussion. The goal is to have them draw out key ideas about how PHST has evolved as a field so
they can then write a paper entitled, "What is PHST? Why Study it?"

10:50 am -11:30 am (40 mins)
