Course Objectives:  We will explore a variety of topics that affect our personal growth and development.  This course is unique to the participants and can cover a variety of topics including, but not limited to:  Self-esteem, irrational belief systems, relaxation & stress reduction, negative self-talk, guilt, trust, insecurity, vulnerability, risk taking, fears, success, perfection, pride, patience, spirituality, personal responsibility, time management, burnout, rejection, and human relationships.

Attendance:  Attendance is your responsibility.  Because this course is hands-on, people who are excessively absent do not pass this course.

Class Participation:  It is my belief that everyone has something to contribute and these contributions are not only welcome, but essential for an interesting class discussion.  It is extremely important that we respect the opinions of others.  Always feel free to ask questions of me in or out of class.

Grading:

A   90 - 100
B     80 - 89
C     70 - 79
D     60 - 69

Major Course Assignments:
  • Reaction paper – The reaction paper is your opportunity to reflect and consider each topic presented in this course.  It should contain your own thoughts, reactions, opinions, areas of agreement or disagreement that you arrive at as you progress through the class.  It may be a reaction to something you read in the text, or outside class material, a reaction to a classmate’s comment, class discussion, instructor comment, or other class-related activities.  The paper should be hand-written in ink and a minimum of one page (front & back), single-spaced.  All papers must be submitted at the beginning of each week of instruction (Monday/Saturday/Tuesday) for the previous week.  They are not graded for content.  See the course schedule for reaction paper due dates.
