Do not think that you're in this class by accident, to just fulfill another "topics" requirement, or because it was the only class left that fit your schedule. You have landed in this class for a special reason. It is meant to be part of your journey, both as a Health Professional and as a Human (not mutually exclusive, of course!). Prof. Sara Marques and Prof. Alis Marachelian will hold your hand figuratively, and will hold the space for your to discover that purpose. No, we're not making you re-live your adolescent years, but we're going to support you in learning to create a healthy adolescence for all the teens you encounter from this day forward.
This is the space for you to track your personal reflections, anecdotes, and 'lessons learned' in the course of the summer semester.
We hope you enjoy this journey towards understanding a bit more that special stage in life called 'adolescence' -now as the adults that you are- as well as to develop and apply your skills as Health Professionals in teaching "health" to youth with the interactive, youth-focused strategies and techniques learned in and outside the classroom.
We have made this blog 'public' and we've seen all the "traffic" it's had since your predecessors started writing their reflections. Feel free to browse but not copy! The wisdom gained through your unique experiences, ideas developed, and challenges you've overcome will be a valuable asset to all those who read it. Please write knowing that the whole world will be reading!
And so, we begin our journey together...
