Learning Goal | Out-of-class Assignments

 

To complete the course, students submit a cumulative learning portfolio that highlights the final learning goal, integration of information with the student’s academic and personal experiences.  This assignment reflects the evolution of the student’s thinking about the subject and the student’s view on the future of planning and public health disciplines. One week is devoted to completion of this task, which is framed to take the place of the final exam.
