| Senior Project |
|
| This course develops fundamentals of leadership and communication by examining regeneration and faith. It allows students to explore a topic of their own choosing, combining class instruction, independent study and mentoring to support their endeavor. Each project begins with a research paper which emphasizes critical thinking. Students then complete a project related to their research and organize a portfolio record of all work. In addition, each student offers a service to their community that is related to their project. The course concludes with a public presentation. "Purpose," "Stretch" and "Challenge" are central themes of this course. Many students invest a great deal of time in this course, but also find it exceptionally rewarding. Weight B. | |
