I built new course content to help students first develop a good, general understanding of what ‘migration’ means, who ‘migrants’ are, how migration and migrants affect them personally, and how the media influences their perspectives about migrants and migration issues. In addition, the course looks at case study examples - different countries and their migration issues - and students are able to express their opinions about them. |

This seminar introduces Hans Rosling’s ""Factfulness"" and its influence on our worldview. Over two semesters, the course examines ten ancestral instincts shaping modern misperceptions. Students learn to access data, replacing exaggerated views with fact-based ones, enabling wiser decisions and reduced stress. |
