HD 611 - Advanced Studies in Working with Adults

3 credits
Students will formulate a rationale and methodology for working with adults in educational, professional and other settings. Topics covered will include adult development, supervising adults, staff evaluation, leadership style, effective communication, and problem solving. Emphasis is on valuing diversity and respecting individuals; active, experiential learning; the interaction between theory and practice; and the impact of social contexts on oneself and others. Students will use observation to assess the challenges inherent in working with adults. They will design strategies to facilitate adult empowerment and advocate responsibly in diverse settings.
