What is UNIV 100?
UNIV 100 is 澳门老奇人论坛鈥檚 first-year seminar offered each fall and spring. The course teaches incoming students the skills and resources they need to be successful here at 澳门老奇人论坛. We cover academic skills, university policies and resources, and personal topics.
The classes are meant to be interactive with lots of discussion, small group activities, and field trips to help students make friends and feel comfortable doing what they need to as a student here.
Instructors
Every section of UNIV 100 is co-taught by a faculty instructor (FI) and a peer instructor (PI), which is a student who applies and is trained on how to teach. Both FIs and PIs are true co-instructors who each bring their own strengths and perspectives to the classroom. They collaborate in all aspects of the course including lesson planning, communicating with students, leading discussions and activities, and even grading.
Topics
While most of the sections are general (no theme), many other sections are based on a certain major, a program, or a learning community. All sections accomplish the same course goals and complete many of the same assignments, but each class reaches the finish line in its own way.
Learning Outcomes
Our current learning outcomes for UNIV 100 are:
- The student will understand and successfully navigate 澳门老奇人论坛 culture.
- The student will identify, understand, and apply academic success strategies.
- The student will explain the services provided by key academic resources on campus.
