HONR 1510: Sexual Differentiation in Human Development

This unique course will discuss the biological steps that determine if we are male, female, or if our biological sex falls somewhere in between. Feminization/masculinization of the genitals and brain structures occur at very different times during development, so these processes may be influenced independently. Interestingly, there are many genetic, hormonal, developmental, and environmental factors that can disrupt or alter sexual differentiation of the genitals or sexual differentiation of the brain. Therefore, this course will reveal the biological basis for intersex individuals, nonbinary gender identities, and sexual orientations beyond heterosexuality. Be prepared to bounce your bias, toss your taboos, and have some honest conversations about what is “normal.” Professor Walline is a certified member of the Safe Zone community and will ensure this course will be a safe, intriguing, and thought-provoking experience like no other.

According to the Department of English, Theatre & Foreign Languages, "English 1060 places students in a context for research by providing readings that invite students into an ongoing conversation in which they explore contesting perspectives in order to make their own contribution to that ongoing conversation. Within this context, students will continue to cultivate rhetorical reading practices; learn to develop a research question; locate and evaluate sources; negotiate differing perspectives; synthesize and integrate sources ethically; arrive at a claim through logical reasoning; and argue the claim in rhetorically effective forms.” In the Esther G. Maynor Honors College, ENG 1060 takes the form of a Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE), enriched by service-learning, that supports students as they refine and enhance skills of critical reading, research, and writing across genres and contexts and culminates in their composing an argumentative research essay.

In this course, students explore the research and writing conventions of an academic discipline, either a discipline they are committed to becoming a part of or one they are considering becoming a part of. They will develop a topic of interest to them and to the class, first by reading information and arguments about that issue, then by developing a research question of their own. They will use library research methods to investigate their question. By the end of the course students will have developed a sustained, clearly written, purposeful paper using reliable evidence and logical arguments to speak to readers about a topic of importance in their chosen field.
