POLI 308D Issues in Canadian Politics, led by Professor Fred Cutler and TA Alexandre Rivard. 308D is a project-based course that operates alongside the 2019 43rd Canadian Federal Election and ends shortly after so. For a political science course, a scholarly discipline, the course goes beyond that scope to achieve something different.
This course has not reached the end yet, but so far, I have observed the value, my self, and my classmates are getting out of this course. This is essentially a political science project management course, so we are forced to use/or learn other skills in order to keep up with the course's demands. Collaborating, coordinating, mediating, voting (on group decisions), optimization (group member skills/knowledge/information), are just a few skills that are essential for thriving in this course. I look forward to the end result, and to find out what else I will learn from this type of course work, my classmates, and the actual project itself.
