Choose the road less traveled. Often students feel that they must select a seminar that seems to align with a prospective major. While this approach may work in some cases, it isn&#8217;t always the best selection strategy. Many students will change their major choice several times. Other students are undeclared. Seminars are designed to accommodate many majors and to offer the space for all kinds of perspectives. For example, a seminar dialogue around food choices might be addressed from the vantage points of nutrition, environment, history, animal welfare, or social justice. For another example, a dialogue on voting might be addressed via political policy, democratic practice, education, media influence or technology. In this way, selecting a seminar is not so much about &#8220;fitting everything I do with the major I am considering&#8221; as it is discovering ideas that are interesting, provocative, and mind-expanding. While some seminars fit well with certain majors (especially those related to sciences because of their heavy course loads), others aim to be good fits for all majors at  91视频.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-ljevtmtm-26-c8f01ca96b9ea8d2f195dcc1b2a7e5d9'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p id='toggle-how-do-i-choose-a-purposeful-learning-seminar-topic' data-fake-id='#how-do-i-choose-a-purposeful-learning-seminar-topic' class='toggler  av-title-above '  itemprop=\"name\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='how-do-i-choose-a-purposeful-learning-seminar-topic' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"&lt;strong&gt;How do I choose a Purposeful Learning Seminar topic?

Some students select a topic based on a discipline in which they believe they will major. For a few, this may be a good strategy, but for others, this may be limiting or shortsighted. People don\u2019t always know what they want to study, and they change their minds often. Trying to take all courses in a particular major can seem purposeful and direct, but it can also be limiting.<\/p>\n<p>2. Many students select a seminar topic \u201cjust because\u201d they like it, major intended or not. Why not explore a little while you have the chance? Besides, all topics are quite interdisciplinary so there is room within each topic to bring your interests to the forefront.<\/p>\n<p>3. Some students try to select what they believe will be the \u201ceasiest\u201d seminar with the least amount of writing or reading. While it is natural to want to manage an overall workload, it is safe to say that Seminar faculty regularly confer with one another, and within our program, all courses are designed with very similar workloads.<\/p>\n<p>4. When selecting a seminar, aim to be enthusiastic, flexible, and curious. As the saying goes, \u201cWe don\u2019t always know what we don\u2019t know.\u201d Select a topic that fits well with your schedule and that seems to resonate with you. Beyond that, as the saying goes, \u201cWe get what we give\u201d and giving one\u2019s all to the Seminar experience can reap many rewards.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-ljevtmtm-25-1e8d2d7990b63de5fb53eb37f1f693a1'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p id='toggle-am-i-required-to-enroll-in-a-purposeful-learning-seminar' data-fake-id='#am-i-required-to-enroll-in-a-purposeful-learning-seminar' class='toggler  av-title-above '  itemprop=\"name\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='am-i-required-to-enroll-in-a-purposeful-learning-seminar' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"&lt;strong&gt;Am I required to enroll in a Purposeful Learning Seminar?&lt;\/strong&gt;\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: &lt;strong&gt;Am I required to enroll in a Purposeful Learning Seminar?&lt;\/strong&gt;\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: &lt;strong&gt;Am I required to enroll in a Purposeful Learning Seminar?&lt;\/strong&gt;\"><strong>Am I required to enroll in a Purposeful Learning Seminar?<\/strong><span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='am-i-required-to-enroll-in-a-purposeful-learning-seminar' aria-labelledby='toggle-am-i-required-to-enroll-in-a-purposeful-learning-seminar' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" ><div class='toggle_content invers-color '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The short answer is yes, but there are some considerations. Take a moment to consider your overall university experience and how you will set yourself up for success. The first-entry seminar is part of the required General Education curriculum and counts for a full 12 undergraduate GE credits. The seminar is required for all first-entry learners, just as the GE curricula are required for all graduates.<\/p>\n<p>That said, some first-entry students may arrive with a few (or many) transfer credits from their high schools, community college, or prior universities. If you have credits for WR 121z and\/or WR 122z, you have a choice to make. How will you decide which path to choose? Here are FOUR helpful considerations.<\/p>\n<h3>SKILLS<\/h3>\n<p>How skilled are you at critical thinking, reading, writing, speaking, and research? Did your previous course offer substantial instruction in each of these areas? Do you feel confident that your skills adequately prepare you for university courses?<\/p>\n<p>Really, this is the most important consideration. If you need more practice and instruction, know that seminars contribute to greater course success across the university. Also, if you took the course some time ago, your skills may need some updating.<\/p>\n<h3>CONNECTIONS<\/h3>\n<p>Would you benefit from learning with and being connected to a stable community of peers? Many students transitioning to college hope to make friends and cultivate connections. Could an interactive, dialogue-friendly, activity-oriented seminar help you do this? Would you enjoy being connected to a familiar professor and primary advisor, someone who will answer questions quickly?<\/p>\n<p>Many students struggle with this aspect of transitioning to a university and indicate they experience a sense of isolation and lack of belonging or connection. University life often differs from what is portrayed in the media and in films. Seminars offer an \u201cinstant\u201d community where people interact often and share learning and ask questions\u2014seminars are not lecture-style courses, and students have many opportunities to speak up and out.<\/p>\n<h3>PURPOSE<\/h3>\n<p>Do you know exactly what you want to do and where you are headed with your career? Some students have everything planned out and are 100% sure of their path. Is this you? Would you benefit from exploring unknown options and from being exposed to the opportunities offered by different programs, majors, clubs, community connections, and work on campus?<\/p>\n<p>Oftentimes students enter a university with one idea of what they want to do with their lives and<br \/>\nleave with a completely different idea. This is perfectly normal. One challenge for beginning students is that \u201cthey don\u2019t know what they don\u2019t know.\u201d Faculty often hear phrases like these: &#8220;That\u2019s a thing?! I didn\u2019t know careers like that existed,\u201d or, \u201cI can get credit for being fluent in Spanish?!,\u201d or, \u201cI didn\u2019t know classes in that subject were offered or what that topic was about!\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>MOTIVATION<\/h3>\n<p>Why did you take the previous transferrable credits? Did you enroll to challenge yourself in the high school setting, to try to save time and graduate early in an accelerated degree program, or to save some tuition money?<\/p>\n<p>If you are a very accomplished student who took extra AP classes or community college classes because you needed a greater challenge than what your high school curriculum offered, you may be ready to move forward. If you are considering an accelerated degree program, you may also be ready to move forward. If you took a course only to save some tuition but struggled in that course, you might think about whether you will save tuition costs if you struggle in (or might fail) future courses and need to retake them. Repeating courses because of withdrawal or failing may cost more time and money. Worth thinking about as well is that any degree requires at least 180 credits; so, you might take a few more of those credits at the lower division level (100-200) rather than opting to stack them at the upper-division level (300-400) when those courses may require more time and effort.<\/p>\n<p><em>Please speak with a Student Success Coordinator or Advisor if you may have some transfer credit(s) but are still wondering if the Seminar sequence is a good choice for you.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-ljevtmtm-24-3-4f01266202741e3937a532ee96f4c8b2'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p id='toggle-i-want-or-need-to-switch-my-purposeful-learning-seminar-class-what-do-i-do' data-fake-id='#i-want-or-need-to-switch-my-purposeful-learning-seminar-class-what-do-i-do' class='toggler  av-title-above '  itemprop=\"name\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='i-want-or-need-to-switch-my-purposeful-learning-seminar-class-what-do-i-do' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"&lt;strong&gt;I want or need to switch my Purposeful Learning Seminar class, what do I do?&lt;\/strong&gt;\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: &lt;strong&gt;I want or need to switch my Purposeful Learning Seminar class, what do I do?&lt;\/strong&gt;\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: &lt;strong&gt;I want or need to switch my Purposeful Learning Seminar class, what do I do?&lt;\/strong&gt;\"><strong>I want or need to switch my Purposeful Learning Seminar class, what do I do?<\/strong><span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='i-want-or-need-to-switch-my-purposeful-learning-seminar-class-what-do-i-do' aria-labelledby='toggle-i-want-or-need-to-switch-my-purposeful-learning-seminar-class-what-do-i-do' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" ><div class='toggle_content invers-color '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>If you hope to switch class times but remain with your current instructor, you only need to discuss this with your current instructor to see if space is available at the new time.

Research shows that having a well-planned sequence of courses to build foundational skills is more effective than opting for a patchwork selection of courses. Much like in studying languages or mathematics or a musical instrument, regular practice of certain skills consistently over time improves those skills dramatically.<\/li>\n<li>Learners respond well to being part of an ongoing and connected community of peers and having their professors know them personally.<\/li>\n<li>All learning tends to develops incrementally, iteratively, and over time. Seminars take the approach that all essential skills are practiced in all terms and that those skills are integrated throughout. Reading, writing, speaking and research are not broken into separate &#8220;blocks&#8221; but happen organically as they would in work settings beyond  91视频.<\/li>\n<li>Seminars are more than just a basic writing course, a communications course, or a research course. In this case, the whole is really greater than the sum of its parts. Seminars include bigger discussions around the nature of learning, the definitions of meaningful work, academic and career planning, and what it means to be an active part of a community of lifelong learners.<\/li>\n<li>Many larger schools do not have the luxury of such connected, personalized and ongoing learning \u2013 the type of learning that  91视频 believes in, values and supports. In many ways, it is the privilege of a smaller university (whether public or private) to offer yearlong seminars.  91视频 makes this choice because it is of great benefit to students.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-ljevtmtm-24-1-58dd439584a4cb35703278c2af5977ad'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\"
