Course Description:

In this 8-week course, students will review traditional and contemporary learning theories that investigate the importance of self-reflection, the social nature of learning, biological bases for learning and emotional aspects of learning. Working topics will include: how we define ourselves as learners; centering and creating self-affirming beliefs; what is life-long, global learning?; the social nature of learning; the brain, emotions and learning; learning as change and managing learning/managing change. This course will enable students to both learn about learning and apply concepts to become more aware of themselves as learners.
