This highly-participatory course will take a comprehensive and integrated approach to teaching students how to translate their academic, co-curricular, experiential, and work-related accomplishments into purposeful careers, service, and/or further study. Students will develop the core competencies of leadership, teamwork, critical thinking, problem solving, public speaking, written and verbal communication skills, and professional presentation. We will spend considerable time discussing the SBS Pathways philosophy and resources.

This course is for SBS who want to learn to teach their peers to be successful in college. Students assist a primary instructor in the teaching of a First Year Seminar that meets weekly throughout the semester. In addition, some assignments will occasionally require working with the FY students outside of class. Students in this class meet weekly in their own seminar where they discuss issues around classroom management, teaching techniques, and organizational skills, such as working with Moodle.
