Class Experience
This four-week seminar investigates linguistic relativity—how language structure and usage might relate to thought and perception. Lessons review historical figures (Boas, Sapir, Whorf), experimental domains like color and spatial metaphors, and methods researchers use to test whether language affects cognition, concluding with critical reflection and evaluation.
Learning Outcomes
Explain the linguistic relativity hypothesis and its implications
Summarize contributions of Boas, Sapir, and Whorf
Recognize experimental methods used to test links between language and cognition
Describe empirical studies on topics like color perception or grammatical influences
Formulate and defend an informed position on language, thought, and culture
Prerequisites
Materials needed:
There is one optional film that I recommend due to its relevance to the content, Arrival (2016) rated PG-13. Parents may decide if the film is appropriate and if accessible for their learner. It is not necessary to view this film to complete this course.
