Learning Outcomes

Students develop the knowledge and skills to be civically engaged

This includes understanding the natural, political, historical, social, and economic underpinnings of the local, national, and global communities to which they belong; Developing the awareness of both civil rights and civil responsibilities for individual and collective action in a democracy; Engaging in service-learning for community building and an enhanced academic experience; Develop the knowledge and skills to take leadership roles.

 Humanities 1100 gave me a great opportunity to look at how the human race has developed and how the responsibility we each must assume to make the world a better place for everyone.

 

Students develop the knowledge and skills to work with others in a professional and constructive manner.

 This includes engaging with a diverse set of others to produce professional work; Interacting competently across cultures; understanding and appreciating human differences; Understanding and acting on standards of professionalism and civility, including the SLCC Student Code of Conduct.

EDU 1010 gave me the opportunity to work with other students and develop lessons plans in a professional manner.  It helped me to understand the team approach to education.

 

 

 

Students communicate effectively.

This includes developing critical literacies—reading, writing, speaking, listening, visual understanding—that they can apply in various contexts; Organizing and presenting ideas and information visually, orally, and in writing according to standard usage; Understanding and using the elements of effective communication in interpersonal, small group, and mass settings.

Communication 1010 was a challenging class for me as I learned to increase my communication skills.  I did not feel that my strength was in public speaking and I learned how to overcome some of my fears and increased my abilities to communicate with other students through online chats and public speeches.
