Connections: Course Syllabus

The Connections course will be delivered primarily through classroom presentations. This is a non-credit course and while assignments will be given, there will be no traditional grading in this class. The benefit of doing your best on the assignments will be that you will learn more about yourself as a student and as a developing young adult. The key to successful academic, career and personal development is learning about yourself and being willing to honestly:

1. review your progress

2. listen to feedback and keep an open mind

3. step outside your comfort zone

4. change what’s not working

5. build upon what is working

And finally, remember the Triple As and keep your:

ü Attitude positive
ü Academics a priority
ü Activities healthy, balanced and fun!
