His Communications and Culture (CMCL) courses are very popular among students from all faculties. There are four major CMCL courses that Dr. Glasberg teaches. The first is CMCL 301: Cultural Foundations, which uses classical texts to analyze the time period between 2500 B.C. – 400 A.D. and the various civilizations that existed during that time. The major focus of the course is looking at the fundamental cultural assumptions that were made by people in the civilizations being explored. Dr. Glasberg encourages his students to consider their own cultural assumptions during the course. One way he does this is by giving students an unprecedented freedom in how they are assessed, challenging the idea that only the instructor of a course can determine the best way of demonstrating learning.
