Transformative Interviewing

(4 Credits)

This course trains students in the practice of transformative interviewing and analysis, a method used to disrupt stereotyping and to foster connection. This tool is based on the science of human connection that tells a five-part story of who we are as humans, how stereotypes get in the way and cause a crisis of connection, the consequences of the crisis, and the solutions. Transformative interviewing is a solution to the crisis of connection. Through readings, discussion and practice, students learn the transformative interviewing method.
