| IS 109 celebrates students’ transition to college and focuses on learning experiences that encourage the exploration of identity, culture, and community in a context of place-based Hawaiian values. It is based on strategies for creating success in college and in life. While honoring the integrity of individual cultural knowledge, it provides readings and activities that develop the students’ connections with self, with each other, with place, and with community. Based on their insights and discoveries, students will develop a personal learning plan which will help to support and direct their educational and career goals, build support networks, and employ technology to share their awareness. This course promotes a positive attitude that will make it possible and exciting for students to “kulia i ka nu‘u” and go forward confidently toward their highest vision with optimism, courage, and hope. |
