The Anthropocene: Student Podcasts
<p>In some of our online programmes we’ve asked students to make a podcast, so they can work with the course content in a creative way (next to writing a more traditional paper). Listening to these podcasts has been one of our absolute favourite things of online education: they are beautifully made, tell such insightful and personal stories and often spark great discussions in class. So… why keep them to ourselves?<br> <br> Our latest episode of Mokum features two student podcast from the course The Anthropocene: Ecologies, Tensions Futures. Sadie Hale and Emil Perron will take you from chicken bone fossils to Norwegian mountain tops and from the sound of pouring oat milk to a discussion of silence.<br> <br> Links:<br> <a href="https://summerschool.uva.nl/shared/programmas/en/winter-courses/anthropocene-ecologies-tensions-futures/anthropocene-ecologies-tensions-futures.html" target="_blank">The Anthropocene: Ecologies Tensions Futures</a>.<br> <a href="https://summerschool.uva.nl/winter-courses/winter-courses.html?f=modes_of_study_key%3Aonline" target="_blank">All online winter courses.</a> <br> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/amsterdamsummerprograms/" target="_blank">Find us on Instagram.</a></p>

Catching up with Muhammad (a.k.a. life after summer programmes)
<p>We’re back with a fresh dose of our podcast, Mokum! This week, we’re joined by summer programmes alumnus and First Generation Scholarship winner, Muhammad Bin Khalid. Muhammad studied with us in the summer of 2018, and told us that Amsterdam interrupted the trajectory of his life in the best way possible. In this episode, Ian and Muhammad catch up with each other as he tells us about his time in Amsterdam and how it changed his perspective on the world around him. Part of a diverse and keen group of students, Muhammad dove head first into a totally new environment. Now studying his bachelor degree in Singapore, he reflects on his the intervening four years since he came to the Netherlands as an intrepid high school student in our Pre-University Honours Programme. Tune into this episode to hear some inspiring stories and lots of hearty laughter.</p>

It's not rocket science, it's social science!
<p>Join Corina Enache and Bregje de Kok, two social scientists with a passion for thinking and researching holistically. In this episode of Mokum, we explore the impacts that social science perspectives have on a wide variety of work that we do, be that in the academy, for businesses, or organisations. In the first half of the episode, Corina - an expert in applied ethnography and learning by doing - welcomes us into the world of translating academic skills to the workplace, methods that she teaches in the Bootcamp: Ethnography and Design. In part two, Bregje breaks down the importance of doing nuanced work in the field of medical anthropology. Bregje runs the Social Science Switch course, and tells us how gaining new perspectives help us see the 'bigger picture' of the work we do with more clarity. Take a deep breath and get ready to dive into the world of the social sciences, what thinking-with theories and methods makes possible, and how the social sciences enrich the work that we do and our understanding of lived experiences. </p>
