ASU 260 - DIY: Becoming Part of the Creative Economy

The Do-It-Yourself movement has increased opportunities for people to be part of the creative economy and participate in an alternative economic system. In this one-credit course students will examine the environmental impacts of consumerism and how an ecological economic approach can contribute to developing an alternative system. Students will develop skills that contribute to reducing consumption by teaching each other. Interests can range widely, including but not limited to preserving food, bartering, making skin care products and repurposing clothes.
