This class is co-taught by Prof. Dr. José Carlos Lozano (Texas AM International University) and Prof. Dr. Wilfried Raussert (with further assistance of Distinguished Professor Dr. Maryemma Graham, The University of Kansas, Lawrence). The class has a threefold purpose. First, the class intends to introduce students to border and transcultural thinking in a geopolitical, aesthetic, and scholarly way. Second it functions as an introduction to media discourses at the Mexican-US border with concrete examples from cinema studies. Third, it functions as a platform for intercultural exchange and study in the US information for students from Bielefeld University. The course offers a four-day intensive exchange and hopes to inspire students to go and study abroad. In terms of content, the class material addresses border thinking, intercultural communication, media and border discourses reflecting the situation at the US-Mexican border, digital humanities, and cross-over scholarship. Professor Dr. Graham will share her experiences teaching in various regions in the US including the East coast, the Deep South, and the Mid-West. Prof. Dr. Raussert will share his experience teaching in the US, Mexico, and Ireland. The idea is to explore the intercultural dimension of teaching and learning. This idea also includes the intention to get students from Texas A&M International and Bielefeld University connected via ZOOM, probably on Tuesday June 18 in the afternoon slot. In addition to regular and active class participation, students from Bielefeld University will have to submit an essay addressing one of the class topics at the end of the semester to receive their credit points (4000 words).
