Course Details
|
|
The course will build upon IHMS 110 & IHMS 250 and include more in-depth self-reflection, active experimentation, and the integration of theory with practice. Due to the nature of the course content, the high level of individual and group interaction and the emphasis on self-development, participation and attendance at all classes is required. Students are expected to be self-directed in their learning. This will involve summarizing assigned readings, challenging one's self in discussions, role-plays and exercises, and providing supportive/developmental feedback to peers and the instructor during the course.
