Topics include the branches of government, the Constitution and civil liberties, political parties, interest groups, citizen participation, and the relationship between the national and state governments. COURSE INTENDED LEARNING OUTCOMES/ASSESSMENT METHODS LEARNING OUTCOMES Identify and differentiate among the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of government and analyze their influence on the development of U.S. democracy. ASSESSMENT METHODS* Students will fulfill this outcome by examining the relationship between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of the United States government and their impact on policymaking at the national level. Students will discuss the effectiveness of these relationships 1) by answering short-answer and essay questions asked on the midterm and final exams, and 2) by writing lowstakes papers responding to questions asked about essays in the assigned reader. Analyze and discuss common institutions or patterns of life in contemporary U.S. society and how they influence, or are influenced by, race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexual orientation, belief, or other forms of social differentiation. Students will fulfill this outcome through in-class discussion of the nature of power and politics in the United States. Since American politics are heavily shaped by issues of race and ethnicity, students will consistently be prodded to think about the nature of American government and politics through the prism of race, ethnicity, class, gender, and sexual orientation. Specifically, students will fulfill this outcome by discussing and writing about such controversies as the debate over gay rights.
