In addition, you look at building and planning an efficient business infrastructure (systems, technology, third party software); small business finance, cash flow, debt, and financing alternatives; transi tioning from personal guarantees and credit lines to a self financing business model; effectively planning, hiring, and training staff with high potential; the legal aspects of organizing and managing a small business; negotiating skills; and setting day to day priorities with the business plan in mind. With these skills, you can build a solid first draft of your business plan.

Fundamentals of Business Administration and Management

4.0 units

A majority of businesses fail within the first two years, and a significant percentage of the initial survivors don’t last much longer. There are many reasons for this, including inexperienced management, lack of sufficient capital, failure to do proper marketing, and a lack of financial competency. The bottom line is that most managers don’t know how to properly systematize, structure, and manage their businesses. They don’t know because they’re not aware of where or how to find this information. This course is designed to teach students how to properly structure, systematize, and manage a business of any size or type, service, or product and in any industry.

Influencer Marketing: Employing Influencers

2.0 units

Today’s consumers are dispersed over thousands of media platforms that are saturated with content and advertising. That’s why marketers are struggling to even generate awareness, least of all sales, on a cost effective basis. Consequently, many are turning to influencers: individuals who already have large, attentive followings that they can persuade to action. Successful influencer marketing, however, requires more than merely asking social media stars to endorse a product. Without a well planned strategy based on critical evaluation, market ers risk losing money, time, and opportunities; damaging their brands; and even violating federal regulations. In this course, students learn how to research, evaluate, and employ the right influencers for their markets and how to legally and strategically integrate them into marketing campaigns that achieve specific goals.

Managing Global Outsourced Projects

4.0 units

Outsourcing has become a way of life in the twenty first century. Much of the project work that used to be proposed, planned, implemented, and controlled inside an organization is now being partially or com pletely performed at domestic and foreign suppliers. Firms are tran sitioning from being “doers” of projects to “buyers” of project work. How can you be sure things are being done as you desire? This course is designed to help you increase your satisfaction levels with project outputs that enhance your effectiveness as a buyer and seller of products or services, especially for large contracts that include sub contractors and a supply chain of vendors. Instruction also covers decisions regarding make versus buy and the type of contract to use. Solicitation and source selection focuses on procurement and helps you understand the use of the statement of work, common solicitation documents, seller evaluation criteria, pricing, and contract law con siderations. Additionally, the course covers the contract administration process, which addresses seller performance and payment on external procurements; and the closing process, which covers contract com pletion, termination, and disputes.

Project Planning with Microsoft Project®

4.0 units

The schedule is the primary source of conflict on any project. Ques tions like “When will we launch?”, “When is the release date?”, “When will we get the certificate of occupancy?” and “When will the drug be available to the public?”, can only be answered credibly by building real project schedules and using real scheduling apps. Surprisingly, this is rarely done. As a result, project managers are often unaware which tasks to expedite to get projects done faster. They make calls, trade favors, and pressure resources to expedite tasks that will not result in earlier project completion dates. This problem is further compounded by the growing trend toward modern, cloud based project management tools, such as Wrike ® , Monday.com ® and Smartsheet®. While these tools are great for collaborating, they lack the scheduling features required to expedite projects. In this course, you’ll learn why Microsoft Project® continues to be the tool of choice for professional schedulers and knowledgeable project managers.

DESMA 776 Masters of Design Cover Series

0.1 CEUs

The covers of the UCLA Extension course catalog have featured the works of several of the world’s best known graphic designers, begin ning in 1990 with Paul Rand and continuing today with luminaries in the design world. With his snow capped orange for the Winter Quarter 1990 cover, Rand not only set the quality standard for the covers, but his participation also encouraged other noteworthy designers to follow his lead. Such legends as Saul Bass, Lou Danziger, Frank Gehry, Ivan Chermayoff, Eiko Ishioka, Henry Wolf, George Tscherney, and Milton Glaser are among the esteemed cohort of designers who have created covers. The collection has been shown in exhibitions and includes not just posters but also sculptures, interactive projects, and installations. Top designers consider the invitation to design the UCLA Extension catalog cover an honor they are unlikely to refuse. In this 60 minute seminar, join Visual Arts department director and curator of the series, Scott Hutchinson, and this quarter’s master cover designer to explore the inspiration for the current cover, the educational and “real world” experiences that have shaped the designer’s career, and a Q&A session.

Technology and Cost Management in the Supply Chain

4.0 units

Many supply chain practitioners do a competent job of converting organizational requirements to purchase orders, sourcing and selecting suppliers, and developing operational schedules. In today’s rapidly changing technological and financial environment, however, supply chain professionals need to do more. They need to understand the role that information technology plays in purchasing and, specifically, how to use enterprise resource planning (ERP), bar coding, electronic data interchange (EDI), and electronic commerce (e commerce). Employees in the supply chain need to evaluate suppliers’ capabilities by investi gating their commitment to Six Sigma, statistical process control (SPC), and ability to maintain a quality system (ISO 9001). Supply chain profes sionals must also have a firm grasp on how their job duties affect organizational financial activities and be able to assess suppliers’ financial health. This course provides essential information that elevates a supply chain practitioner to the next level. Instruction assists them in assimilating new information in the areas of information technology, quality, logistics, inventory, and financial management.

Supply Chain Inventory Management

4.0 units

Managing inventory has been likened to a circus performer walking on a high wire 100 feet above the ground. The same balance is required to effectively manage inventory. If you increase it too much, you create excess inventory that upsets the organization, and if you decrease it too much, your customers will not be happy. As a supply chain practitioner, you can probably relate to this scenario. Managing inventory is all about maintaining a happy medium, and this course equips you with the knowledge to help achieve the right levels of inventory. Learn why there is such a controversy over the nature of inventory (if it’s good or bad), discover how you can eliminate the annual physical inventory through cycle counting, discover why accurate computer inventory balances do not mean much without sound procedures and effective physical inventory control practice, and learn how to scientifically set safety stock. Other topics include the relationship of Lean/Just In Time (JIT) to inventory, the benefits of the economic order quantity (EOQ) and economic production quantity (EPQ), the difference between independent and dependent demand, and how to use vendor managed inventory (VMI).

The Remarkable Sand-Eating Crabs of Tropical Australia

Australia is a gorgeous land of many strange creatures. Soldier crabs and sand bubbler crabs are two of these remarkable species. They live on pristine sandy beaches where almost no other animals and food are found. In this course, we look at how the two crabs differ for example, soldier crabs are very colorful and graze sediments in huge armies or packs; while sand bubbler crabs camouflage with sand, live solitarily, yet also survive and thrive in large numbers. We also look at how both crabs farm sediments on which they live and feed, extract ing mostly microbes but also single celled “plants”, from sand. Finally, we look at the behavioral and physiological mechanisms that enable soldiers and sand bubblers to prosper under such extreme environ mental conditions.

The Discourse of Justice

Justice is a universal ideal embodied in the American Constitution, the Charter of the United Nations, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In this course, we discuss the measuring sticks used to deter mine right and wrong in practice, by mapping out the crisscrossing normative layers which determine the contours of justice. In our investigation, we explore not only the varied political, legal, religious, and cultural systems in different countries that define right and wrong; but also the discrepancies between the legal, religious, and cultural institutions within one country. While some scholars insist upon using the legal system to maximize individual rights and freedoms over the collective, others desire the opposite or mixing the two. Topics of lively discussion include your views on what a just society is like, and whether we can have one universally acceptable standard for justice, irrespective of whether we live in the United States, North Korea, Iran, or Cuba.

I Lived through That: Meet Lujira Cooper

Lujira Cooper lived as an openly gay black woman in the heart of New York City during the 1969 uprising of Stonewall.

Catherine De Medici and 16th Century France

In this course, we explore the life and times of one of France’s most controversial and iconic rulers from the 16th century. The “power behind the throne” of four French monarchs, Catherine De Medici was married to King Henry II of France, and was the mother of French Kings Francis II, Charles IX, and Henry III. Deeply engaged in the religious wars of the reformation era, she was known for her ruthlessness, and was blamed for the persecutions carried out under her sons’ rules, in particular the St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre of 1572, during which thousands of Huguenots were killed in France.

Hadrian, Charlemagne, Charles V, and the Costs of Roman Decline and Renewal, 117-1558 AD

The idea that the Roman world had declined and required radical correction forms was one of the most persistent and dangerous nar ratives in European history. In this course, we spotlight the texts, art, and architecture that reveal how the emperors Hadrian (117 138 AD), Charlemagne (774 814 AD), and Charles V (1519 1556 AD) used the promise of Roman restoration to thrust radical and often violent changes onto the Mediterranean world. Their examples show the power this idea had and the risk that unchallenged claims of social decline and promises of renewal still pose today. This course will be recorded.

Women who Misbehave: Beryl Markham

Beryl Markham was a woman who changed the world’s understanding of what women were capable of doing. In 1936, the English born Kenyan aviator became not only the first female but the first aviator to fly solo westward across the Atlantic to the United States from Europe. She was known to “break rules, remain her own woman, do everything in her own way..with a free and easy manner.” In this course, we review her life (1902 1986), her accomplishments, and her memoir, West with the Night We also take a look at her involvement in Kenyan politics, as she was intimately affected by Kenya becoming a British Colony in 1922, the Mau Mau rebellion in l952; the Kenyan anti colonial activist Jomo Kenyatta, and Kenyan Independence Day in 1963.

The Art of Fabergé

The House of Fabergé was a jewelry firm founded in 1842 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, by Gustav Faberge, followed by his sons and grandsons. The firm was famous for designing elaborate jewel encrusted Fabergé eggs for the Russian Tsars, as well as a range of other work of high quality and intricate detail. In this course, we explore many of the celebrated series of 50 Imperial Easter eggs that were created for the Russian Imperial family from 1885 to 1916 when the company was run by Peter Carl Fabergé. We also explore Fabergé’s creations of miniature hardstone carvings of people, animals, and flowers that were carved from semi precious or hardstones and embellished with precious metals and stones.

Muscle powers movement, both voluntary and involuntary, in animals of all sizes. We examine the arrangement, function, and oddities of involuntary, car diac, and voluntary muscles. We turn to the topics of aging and disuse, body building, performance enhancing drug, and representative muscle disorders along with their medical and surgical treatments. We finish by recognizing records in muscular strength and endurance in a spectrum of animals as well as in humans of all ages.

The Avant-Garde Women Artists of 1920s Paris

In the 1920s, Paris was emerging from the ashes of the First World War but still carried the optimism of the Art Deco era. Perceived as a place of cultural, artistic, and sexual liberty, the City of Lights attracted many women from Europe and the United States who were part of all the different artistic movements. In this course, we explore the unorthodox lives and radical art of women artists who worked within the context of the rapidly changing times in which they lived. These include Tamara de Lempicka, known for her Art Deco portraits and nudes; Romaine Brooks, known for her images of women in androgynous or masculine dress; and Suzanne Valadon, one of the few women artists who painted female nudes during the first half of the twentieth cen tury.

Bones: Inside and Out

Because of its unique properties, bone, while completely concealed, supports vertebrate life. Then later, when revealed, bone reflects Earth’s history and human culture. The course begins with a descrip tion of bone’s composition, structure, names, shapes, and growth patterns. The focus turns to the contributions of pioneering bone doctors and some of the ingenious treatments available for diseased or missing skeletal segments. After life, bones may be revealed, sometimes even millions of years later, when they become historical markers. The course continues with how paleontologists, archaeolo gists, and anthropologists use bone to interpret Earth’s history. We highlight man’s remarkable and varied use of bone to make spiritual items, weapons, implements, amusements, and adornments.

Six Compelling Courtroom Dramas

The courtroom is one of the most compelling sources of drama, real and fiction, in film. A courtroom trial with its lawyers, witnesses, conflicts, and high stakes is an inevitable and bottomless trove for writers, directors, and actors. In this course, we watch six classic courtroom dramas that portray justice (or its opposite) in action. Anatomy of a Murder (1959) is based on the true story of a murder in Big Bay, Michigan. Twelve Angry Men (1957) focuses on a jury in a murder trial which is frustrated by a single member. In The Verdict (1982), an outcast, alcoholic Boston lawyer tries to salvage his career and self respect by taking a medical malpractice case to trial rather than settling. In Runaway Jury (2003), a juror on the inside and a woman on the outside manipulate a court trial involving a major gun manufacturer. In A Few Good Men (1992), a military lawyer defends Marines accused of murder. And in Primal Fear (1996), an altar boy is accused of murdering a priest.

Coming to Terms with the Holocaust, Part 2: The Holocaust Begins

As the most extensively documented genocide in history and the most intensively investigated, interrogated, and debated the Holo caust in Europe (1933 1945) has much to teach us about hatred, dema goguery, impersonal violence, state sponsored murder on an industrial scale, and ourselves. In this course, we complete our broad overview of the Holocaust. We trace the tangled path that led from exclusionary Nazi Antisemitism to Einsatzgruppen murder squads and, inevitably, gas chambers. We investigate the ghettoization of the Jews of Eastern Europe, the radical and far reaching decisions at the Wannsee Confer ence, and the establishment of the five concentration camps. And we study the creation and operation of Auschwitz and conclude with an interrogation of the Nuremberg trials. This course will be recorded.

Mysticism: East and West

A major and recurrent feature in world religions is the ecstatic or mystical experience of the individual or groups and the effects of such experience on the religious tradition. The course is concerned with the mystical as it appears in archaic, Eastern, and Western traditions, as well as with the mystics themselves. We begin with perhaps the earliest of religions, the shamans, and continue with the ancient Greek, Roman, and Egyptian mystical practices as described in the secret texts. Hinduism, Buddhism, and Daoism present instructions and evidence of intense mystical experiences. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all have significant and powerful mystical knowledge that is explored. The course ends with a survey of modern ecstatic experience induced by drugs, as well as the psychological and bodily practices of the twenty first century.

The Art of Silence: Visual Storytelling and the Lesson of Silent Cinema

Today’s understanding of silent movies rarely stems from a first hand viewing experience. Instead, it relies on an idea shaped by our collec tive imagination, in which silent cinema is identified as a crude and primitive type of soundless narrative; conveyed by blurry, jittery, and colorless images. In actuality, nothing could be further from the truth, since silent movies were shot in 35mm, mostly screened in color, and accompanied by music sometimes in the form of a symphonic score, performed by a live orchestra. Silent filmmakers quickly developed and standardized shooting techniques and rules of continuity editing which are still in place today. By the mid 1920s, silent cinema was using a sophisticated type of visual storytelling that was universally understood by audiences all over the world. In this course, we focus on the unique narrative style of the late silent period, as exemplified by movies such as Ernst Lubitsch’s Lady Windermere’s Fan Buster Keaton’s The General and F. W. Murnau’s Sunrise The goal is to show how the narrative lesson provided by these films was later used by classic, modern, and even contemporary filmmakers in their sound films e.g. Jacques Tati’s Mon Oncle, Nicolas Roeg’s Walkabout, and Andrew Stanton’s Wall-E (Pixar).

Words in English: History, Semantics, Translation

English is a melting pot of linguistic ingredients that has been sim mering for centuries. Even the original Anglo Saxon was already a blend of the dialects of west Germanic tribes living along the North Sea coast. While a majority of English word roots come from Latin and Greek, it has also borrowed words from as many as 350 other lan guages. In this course, we explore the structural elements of English words, particularly words of Latin and Greek origin, to see how they combine to derive the vocabulary of English. We also discuss the historical development of English vocabulary, the distinction between native and borrowed words, sources of new words, changes in word meanings and pronunciation, and the place of English among other languages.

Birds in Classical Music Pieces

Birds have inspired compositions from the very start of the western musical tradition. Many are, after all, natural singers one could argue musicians in their own right. The subset of repertoire in classical music, which they inspired, is rich. References to birds in music take on many forms. In some compositions, birds signify allegorical meanings. In others, they inspire close imitation of birdsongs in the texture of the musical content. In this course, we explore musical pieces that are based on birds, such as the nightingale, the swan, the cuckoo, and the lark. From the medieval era till present days and from all corners of western European musical traditions, we discuss works by anonymous and renowned composers, including Archadelt, Vivaldi, Handel, Respighi, Saint Saens, Sibelius, Stravinsky, and more.

Jazz, Blues, Rock, Pop, Folk, Country, Hip Hop, Rap, and many more kinds of music all evolved in the USA. Some of these genres have common roots stemming from geographic location, ethnic populations, personal history, wars, and immigration (by choice and not). They progressed along different paths but as they grew up they influenced one another, comingled, sometimes finding their common ground and giving rise to yet newer and different styles or genres.

But he is most known for his system of actor training, preparation, and rehearsal technique, in which he subjected his acting and direction to a rigorous process of artistic self analysis and reflection. In his later work, Stanislavski focused more intently on the underlying patterns of dramatic conflict and developed a rehearsal technique that he called “active analysis,” in which actors would improvise conflictual dynamics. Actors, directors, and dramaturgs utilize this multi pronged approach to unlock action and events in dramatic narrative, but it is also great fun for curious enthusiasts of dramatic structure and literature. In this course, we learn cognitive event analysis to evaluate a writer’s underlying intentions with the short stories, The Last Leaf by O. Henry and The Reunion by Maya Angelou. Finally, we discover the dramatic heart of Anton Chekov’s master work The Seagull By the end of the class, students keen on acting will have the opportunity to experiment with a simple guided improvisatory technique using Stanislavski’s physical analysis.

Paris of the Impressionists: The Sites and Locales of the Masterworks of Impressionism

The art of the Impressionists explored the contemporary world in which they lived and worked. Featuring the cafes and nightclubs of Montmar tre as well as racetracks, train stations, boulevards, parks, operas, and ballet the Impressionists documented everyday life in the modern city of Paris. Taking advantage of the newly invented paint tubes, they were able to paint outside while looking directly at subjects rather than work ing in a studio from sketches. The advent of photography influenced them to focus on light, color, cropping, movement, and spontaneity. In this course, we armchair travel around Paris, exploring their paintings of Paris and the sites that inspired them. This course will be recorded. Enrolled students will have access to videos for the duration of the course. Reg# 392325

Banned and Challenged Books, Part 3

Books have been banned, or challenged as inappropriate, for a variety of reasons: for treating issues of belief, racial, or religious in ways that encourage discrimination or violence; for promoting offensive or “damaging” lifestyles; for reflecting political bias on the left or on the right; and for being “negative” in unspecified ways. In this course, we read and discuss books which have been banned or at least ques tioned for their social value. These include The 1619 Project, which weaves together eighteen essays that explore the legacy of slavery in present day America with thirty six poems and works of fiction illu minating key moments of oppression, struggle, and resistance; George Orwell’s 1984, a dystopian novel about the pervasive eyes of “big brother”; and Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, in which patri archal power subjects women; as well as Nabokov’s Lolita and Kate Chopin’s The Awakening works that deal with either open or sup pressed sexuality.

American Philosophy

American philosophy has its roots in the experimentalism that was required by a people who faced the task of coming to terms with the uncertainties of a radically new environment. In this course, we begin in the eighteenth century with the American Enlightenment, which was influenced by the European Enlightenment and associated with the political philosophy of the Founding Fathers (e.g. Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin). We then move into the nineteenth century and take a look at transcendentalism and pragmatism. Our discussion culminates with a discussion of contemporary thought.

The Fiction of Abdulrazak Gurnah: 2021 Nobel Prize-Winner, Part 1

Tanzanian British novelist Abdulrazak Gurnah received the 2021 Nobel Prize for Literature “for his uncompromising and compassionate penetration of the effects of colonialism and the fate of the refugee in the gulf between cultures and continents.” Born in 1948 to an Arab family in the east African Sultanate of Zanzibar, he was a teenager when a coup led by anti Arab leftists overthrew the Arab rulers in 1964, leading to political upheaval and the persecution of Arab citizens. He fled to England where he eventually received his Ph.D. in English at the University of Kent in 1982 and started teaching there until his retirement in 2017. In this course, we read two short stories and three of his ten novels: Memory of Departure, Pilgrims Way, andParadise These works explore themes of loss, memory, alienation, racism, and sexual awakening.

“The play’s the thing wherein to catch the conscience of the king,” Hamlet said. This course constitutes first viewing a film the screen play actualized and then addressing the existential dilemma put before us in the work the flesh and blood human situation in which the characters find themselves. We break the film down, analyze how it uses the verbal, visual, and visceral art forms in presenting our dilemma. Films this quarter include: The Constant Gardener (2005), The Conversation (1974), The Mission (1986), The English Patient (1996), and Shadowlands (1993). The instructor requests that no reviews or articles concerning the films be read beforehand, as it would affect seeing the films with the openness and freshness which art asks of us. We don’t want to lose that wonderful experience.

Undelivered: The Speeches That Were Never Given

For almost every delivered speech, there exists an undelivered opposite. These “second speeches” provide alternative histories of what could have been if not for schedule changes, changes of heart, or momentous turns of events. In this course, we examine notable speeches that were never delivered, disclosing what could have been if history had gone down a different path. The suggested book is Undelivered: The Never-Heard Speeches That Would Have Rewritten History by Jeff Nussbaum, senior speechwriter for President Joe Biden. These never heard speeches include Dwight Eisenhower’s apology for a D Day failure, Richard Nixon’s refusal to resign the presidency, and Hillary Clinton’s acceptance for a 2016 victory. Examining the content of these speeches and the context of the historic moments that almost came to be, Nussbaum considers not only what they tell us about the past, but also what they can inform us about our present.

Joan

Crawford: Not the Girl Next Door

Born Lucille Fay LeSueur in humble surroundings, Joan Crawford began her professional career as a dancer; and in a shining example of art imitating life, rose from rags to riches to become one of the most powerful forces in Hollywood in an otherwise man’s world. In many of her roles, she dominated the leading male character just as she did in life, and began to epitomize the modern woman. In this course, we view and assess her work in seven of her most iconic films. She played a flapper in Our Dancing Daughters (1928), the film that first catapulted her to stardom, and she was part of the first star studded ensemble to ever grace the silver screen in Grand Hotel (1932). Thirteen years later, she won the Academy Award for Best Actress in the mother daughter melodrama Mildred Pierce (1945). She played a gangster’s moll in the film noir The Damned Don’t Cry (1950), an unknowing victim of a psychotic killer in the suspense thriller Sudden Fear (1952), the strong willed saloonkeeper in the cult western Johnny Guitar (1954), and the put upon invalid sister of Bette Davis her real life nemesis in the Grand Guignol psychological thriller Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962).

In this course, we investigate the event, the industry of conspiracy theories it spawned (long before the internet), and how the failure to arrive at a broadly accepted consensus of responsibility for the murder of a President laid the foundations for a deep distrust of the institutions essential to the vitality of American democracy.

Beginning Mah-Jongg

Mah Jongg is a game of both skill and luck that originated in China many centuries ago. It was brought to the West in the 1920s and is played with four players seated around a table. Tiles are shuffled, die are cast, and rituals involving the allocation of tiles and then the exchange of tiles begin. The first person to match a hand of 14 tiles and thus call “Mah Jongg” ends the game, whereupon tiles are scored, and a winner is declared. This course introduces the beginner to the basic rules and simple strategies. Learn to play this enjoyable, social, and thought provoking game!

Introduction to Protein Structure: From Disease to Therapy

4.0 units

Proteins are involved in almost every physiological process that occurs within the body. They are necessary for countless metabolic pro cesses, including converting glucose into energy, carrying oxygen in your blood, and recognizing and destroying foreign pathogens. Know ing the structure of the proteins that perform these essential functions is paramount to understanding how they work normally and why mutations lead to disease. Although proteins are involved in innumer able diseases, they may also be key in the development of therapeutic treatments. By understanding protein structure, scientists can design small molecules and even novel proteins that can treat a variety of diseases. This course provides an introduction to protein and nucleic acid structure as it relates to the essential functions that these mac romolecules perform within cells. Lectures focus on how protein structure relates to a variety of common human pathologies and on the therapies that are used to treat these diseases.

PATH X 401

Introduction to Molecular Diagnostics, Pharmacogenetics, and Personalized Medicine

4.0 units

Variations in human DNA over generations result in evolution and beneficial adaptations. However, some changes in human DNA that cause genetic variation occasionally result in genetic disorders. The field of molecular diagnostics focuses on the development of tests that aid in the diagnosis and prognosis of disease, as well as predict disease risk. The information gained by this type of diagnostics can identify the abnormal molecules that signify the presence or potential for disease in individuals. As a result, clinicians can now prescribe drugs or other therapies that target the specific abnormal function. The emerging field of pharmacogenetics aims at predicting the drug response based on an individual’s genetic profile, thus helping clini cians to tailor effective treatments. This course overviews the basic principles of molecular diagnostics and pharmacogenetics and the applications of the emerging technologies in personalized medicine. Students learn about the clinical applications of molecular diagnostic in patients with cancer, inherited disease, and infectious disease. The course concludes with detailed discussions on personalized medicine and the pros, cons, ethics, challenges, strategies, and public policy related to this emerging field.

WRITING X 461.2E Power Up Your Writing: Deeper Characters, Deeper Truths

2.0 units

How do writers create work that electrifies readers and stays with them long after they have turned the last page? One key is that they create characters who live on in the readers’ minds; another is that they dig into their own hearts and minds to reveal deeper truths. Whether you’re writing fiction, poetry, memoir, or essay, this course helps you to do both. The process of being able to create memorable characters includes building the vivid worlds they live in, and exploring how they reveal who they are and what they want through action and speech, as well as through what they own, wear, value, and desire. The body as a metaphor for feelings about ourselves and others is explored, and visual arts painting, sculpture, photography offer pathways to get at your own truths. In revising your work, you gain tools for going deep into the story to reveal rich, new insights. Suitable for beginners and experienced writers.

Discovering the Writer Within

2.0 units

At the heart of who we are as human beings is our ability to create. Unfortunately, modern society does a good job of suppressing this impulse in most people, especially those who don’t consider them selves “artists.” This writers’ workshop is predicated on the belief that we are all artists in one way or another, and that by finding our own creative voice, our lives can only be enriched. Through a series of in class writing exercises, students tap into all five of their senses and draw upon a lifetime of memories as a way to unleash their creativity. The final goal of the workshop is both the celebration of the creative process and a first draft of either a short story, a short play, a collection of poems, or some other form of text.

Pitching for Publication

In today’s competitive and ever changing literary environment, it is crucial for writers to build an online presence. Publishing personal essays, micro nonfiction or reported stories well before finishing a manuscript, or signing a book deal allows authors to develop a niche while establishing themselves as experts in their field of interest. In this course, writers learn how to find and research publications, how to approach editors seeking content, and how to write a winning pitch. Using real world examples of successful pitch letters and proven strategies, this class is part lecture, part hands on workshop. Students will walk away with a readymade pitch letter, a template for moving forward, and a list of resources to help place future stories.

The Psychology of Compelling Storytelling

3.0 units

Novice storytellers tend to associate the quality of a story with the quality of its prose. While a clear and concise style will facilitate understanding, the commercial success of “poorly written” books demonstrates that good storytelling, the kind of storytelling that fas cinates and persuades, calls for a different skill: the ability to create urgency. This is not an ordinary writing course. This course explains how it is that stories engage and persuade and provides a theoretical background of the mental processes that guide attention and decision making as well as of the limits of cognition so that students can apply that knowledge to the crafting of more engaging and more persuasive stories. For that purpose, this course takes a multidisciplinary approach to storytelling, borrowing concepts from media psychology; communication studies; social psychology; and even seemingly unrelated disciplines such as cognitive neuroscience and ethology, the study of animal behavior.

Mastering Acts, Beats, and Arcs whether Plotting or Pantsing your Novel

Aspiring and experienced authors alike struggle with the eternal question: plot it or pants it? Can you do a little of both? How? In this practical course, you will learn three techniques to plot your novel whether you prefer to follow a structural outline or let the muse move you. This webinar will include a lecture that explains novel structure from three perspectives: the three acts, character beats, and character arcs. You will receive a plot grid template (worksheet) as well as guidance using the tool to create a functional plot grid or storyboard for your story. Whether you prefer to plot/outline or let the muse move you, if you’ve ever struggled with what to write and where in the novel it belongs, this course will guide you through structuring the essential elements of your story that will work whether you’re writing your first book or simply your most recent.

WRITING X 462.2 Setting and Description

3.0 units

Setting and description are foundational to a story and can support larger themes well if done thoughtfully with fresh and vivid language, attention to detail, implication, and perspective. They can, in effect, give one’s characters a home or space to work within, as well as open up possibilities for deepening and expanding the scope of any story. In this reading and exercise based class, we explore and practice descriptive writing and its power in establishing setting and mood while enlivening action and supporting symbolic relationships in fiction and creative nonfiction. Each week, we read sample fiction and creative nonfiction to identify how the content is influenced by the description of setting, action, events, and objects. By the end of class, you have improved skills in writing descriptively to enrich and enliven your work.

Character and Conflict

3.0 units

One of the most misunderstood concepts in the craft of fiction writing is the relationship between character and conflict. A story can involve a complex character with fascinating thoughts, ideas, and interests, but without a conflict that motivates the character to act, the ensuing story will be stagnant and flat. In this class, we explore, through our own writing and through published work, how to create richly imag ined characters and how to challenge them with conflicts that threaten their hidden, most deeply held desires, forcing them to act in ways that change the world around them. Each week, we read sample fiction to identify craft tools that help us determine and convey the flaws in our characters, flaws that then help us pick a conflicted situation to push our characters into action. Weekly writing exercises put theory into practice and help you discover what works (and doesn’t) in your own writing practice.

Story Structure for the Novel

3.0 units

Many aspiring novelists write with the hope that inspiration will come. The result is time wasted on a flabby novel with no clear shape and a sagging pace. On the other hand, story structure gives your novel a skeleton; it forms the bones of your story. And just as adding flesh and clothing to a body makes that body more unique, so does any creative addition the writer makes to his or her basic structure. This course teaches you how to build that skeleton, from a solid premise line to building the moral argument of your novel. You ensure that your novel has what story structure guru John Truby calls the “seven key steps,” and you learn how reversals and reveals, as well as character wants and needs, can drive your story to a satisfying conclusion. Exercises are worksheets which focus on structural elements such as character ghosts, story world, and more. By the end of the course, you have in hand a six page synopsis that works.

The workshop also includes a rigorous workshop within a workshop that teaches students how to create a plot grid that will map out their novel from the beat level all the way up to the act level, while tracking all plot threads for rhythm and pacing. Students will learn how to shape and manipulate that plot grid into a satisfying and deliberate act structure. The goal is to complete fifty polished pages of a novel and a work in progress version of the plot grid by the end of this two course sequence.

Literary journalism is nonfiction prose that transcends “who, what, where, and when” to give a more detailed, richer, and vivid picture of real events.

The tradition of “concrete poetry” saw 1950’s poets influenced by design to create works that used words to tell a visual story, influenced by their sound and wordplay.

We will explore what it means to write a poem that is meant to be more than read. We’ll look at poems and do a series of generative prompts to craft a few “sketches” of poems.

Strategies for Getting Representation

2.0 units

Understanding how Hollywood operates is crucial for any new screen writer seeking agents and managers for representation. First, you must know the differences between the roles an agent plays versus a manager.

Special attention is paid to preparing your script for agency submission to demystify what reps really look for in their next hot writing client, as this can be different from what development executives and buyers look for. While it’s true that formu laic scripts tend to sell better in Tinseltown, this course also covers strategies for writers who seek representation with more character driven indies in their portfolios. By the end of the course, you have a solid understanding of what steps to take next for your career.
