The purpose is to provide an alternative approach to teaching social studies and integrated arts which opens children's minds, stimulates their imaginations and language abilities, and sparks their enthusiasm for continued personal development and discovery. This class may also serve as a practical guide for classroom teachers, recreational leaders, and others who want to initiate creative drama activities in a variety of subject areas and need help in getting started.

  • HD 477/677: The Community as Classroom: Forging Connections Through The Arts

    3.00 Credits
    Pacific Oaks College

    Every community has a wealth of people, places and organizations on which schools, human service agencies and other institutions can draw to enrich the quality of care, education and opportunities to construct meaningful experiences. Incorporating scholarship and methodologies from visual and performing arts, folklore, oral history and intergenerational programs, this course views field trips and site visits by artists and local residents as being at the heart of the human services rather than enrichment activities. The course will explore ways to integrate the rich resources of local communities into classrooms and institutions that encourages exploration and discovery. Curriculum will include visits to studios of local artists, who will explore technical application in the arts through a variety of media. As part of the course, students will participate in a field trip of their own and develop a project based on the experience.

  • HD 498: Assessment of Experience

    1.00 - 3.00 Credits
    Pacific Oaks College

    The undergraduate assessment course requires students to reflect, conceptualize, and clearly communicate what they have learned about human development from their life experience. Papers and presentations are the means by which this learning is documented. Papers must demonstrate a deep engagement with the topics as evidenced by the ability to articulate the developmental nuances, subtleties, themes, and patterns present in the student's life. Final papers are a result of a process that requires writing multiple drafts. While much of this process is an individual one, an essential element of this class is to be an active and participating member of the learning community. Fundamental to the assessment process is the ability to give and receive feedback.
