Source Analyses
At the end of each unit for which you are NOT writing an Observation Report, you must submit an analysis of one of the additional sources listed for that unit of the course, accessed via the links on the left side of each page. Some are (A) available in recommended books (available at the bookstore); others are (B/C) on reserve at the library & posted also on SacCT or (C) at the library media center. NOTE: half a dozen student Source Analyses will be assigned as readings for the final TRA and application exercise.
Site Observation
Site visits and interviews are designed to get you to experience first hand the people and behaviors linked to the Indian traditions studied in the course. On the course content page in SacCT, you will sign up for one of the celebrations featured in this course, held at a particular locat worship site; you will then then visit the site at the scheduled time, observe participants, and interview one of them to get a sense of what they are thinking. This experience will serve as the foundation for the observation report.
