EDUC 1100

Students will develop an understanding of the purpose of post-secondary education and the ways in which becoming educated can enhance the quality of their lives and communities. They will explore their place in the university through examining the history and functions of education (e.g., the exclusion of certain groups, the relation of education to living in a democratic society). Students will also begin to develop abilities necessary to maximize their education including the ability to participate in scholarly discourse, recognize connections between disciplines, understand the world, and act within it in new and creative ways through discussions, group work, special events, and service learning projects. This course is credit excluded with EDUC 1101, EDUC 1102, EDUC 1150, EDUC 1190. Student may enroll in and earn credit for only one of these courses. Note: This is a Pathway Level 2 course option.
