ARCN 246 Archaeological Methods & Lab 6 credits
As a field that is truly interdisciplinary, archaeology uses a wide range of methods to study the past. This course provides a hands-on introduction to the entire archaeological process through classroom, field, and laboratory components. Students will participate in background research concerning local places of historical or archaeological interest; landscape surveying and mapping in GIS; excavation; the recording, analysis, and interpretation of artifacts; and the publication of results. This course involves real archaeological fieldwork, and students will have an opportunity to contribute to the history of the local community while learning archaeological methods applicable all over the world.

PSYC 215 Neuropsychology of Aging Lab Practicum 2 credits
This lab practicum allows students registered in either Psychology 214 Neuropsychology of Aging or Sociology/Anthropology 252 Growing Up in an Aging Society to gain experience in studies of aging and physiological measures used in testing cognition. The practicum provides hand-on work; in the lab students learn to collect electrodermal activity (EDA) and electroencephalograms, EEG, on themselves and peers so that there is a deeper understanding of the data collected in published works in aging cohorts. Moreover, there are planned weekly field trips by which students will be able to join in games and social time with elderly clients at the local convalescent centers. Students will express ideas for research or programs for elderly clients by constructing an infographic based on their experiences and readings from class, and there is a public viewing of these infographics.
It is recommended that students enroll concurrently in PSYC 214. A grade of C- or better must be earned in both PSYC 214 and 215 to earn the LS requirement.
This course is not open to students who have received credit for PSYC 368.
