Practicing self-expression is often seen as a challenge for many, and yet through accurate self-assessment, social awareness and mindfulness, students participating in this course will learn to master it.

The concept of who we are as individuals has often proved to be a tricky subject. In this semester-long course, students will work together to build perspective and understanding on the concepts and the realities of identity through the assessment and discussion of personal experiences and other current real world events.

In this course, we are taking cues from what we already know about emotional intelligence, personal identity theory, social identity theory and more to help students build more confidence, competency and esteem.

Who are you? How can that be expressed? What do you want in life? What are you capable of accomplishing? In this course, we begin to answer these questions and more.

Throughout the course, students will be able to measure the concrete efficacy of using positive affirmations daily.

During this course, students will build perspective on personal identity, demonstrate the skill of self-expression, and build healthy habits that will help them in taking definitive action towards their goals.
