Experiential Learning in Science Communication I

3 credits · Undergraduate

An experiential learning class for suitably-qualified senior students. This is a fundamentally ‘learn by doing’ course in which students have the opportunity to develop and consolidate teaching and communications skills in Psychology and Neuroscience. Students develop these skills through a series of communication-based projects, in-class instruction, and preparing, delivering, and marking lab materials for PSYO 1011.03 and PSYO 1012.03 lab groups (approx. 25 students). SIGNATURE REQUIRED. CALENDAR NOTES: This course must be taken in the same academic year as NESC 3012.03 and no credit can be given for one course without the other. A grade will be given for NESC 3011.03 only after NESC 3012.03 is completed. PREREQUISITES: B+ or better in NESC 2007.03 (or equivalent), advanced courses in Psychology or Neuroscience, and Instructor’s consent.
