HSED 661 - Kinesthetic Teaching in Sex Education: Presentation, Platform, and Performance Theory and Skills

3 Credit(s)

This course begins with the premise that any educator is, her or himself, the most important tool for creating learning in the classroom. And, while writing goals, objectives, and lesson plans is essential, delivering those in an educational setting is in itself an art form. Students explore this issue from a perspective rarely considered in graduate training: How do you teach? Where do you stand? How do you use your voice? How can you use movement and proxemics to enhance student learning? The course works to develop and hone key presentation and platform skills based in theories from theater, psychology, and education.
Prerequisite(s): HSED 592.
