How Do I Connect my Programs with the Course? 
Use the reader, Reflection and Engagement.  Faculty use a variety of themes in the course: the role of the teacher and learner; the importance of dialogue; the importance of seeing the world through the lens of the other; the role of education in a democratic society.  Reference essays by the following authors in the reader:  Plato, Addams, Van Doren, Cronon, Edmundson, Freire, King Jr., Lagemann, and Shorris.

How Do Faculty Connect Their Classes with Our Programs? 
Generally, faculty use reflection techniques to help students connect the meaning of liberal education to their co-curricular experiences.  Examples of questions asked include the following: 

  • Describe the event you attended.
  • What were the events learning objectives?  What were your learning objectives?
  • Did the event fulfill your learning objectives?  Explain why they did, or did not.
  • How does this event connect with your perceptions of liberal education?
  • What did you find most valuable and least valuable about the event?
