Evaluating the Impacts of COVID-19 to Individuals
Students are required to choose 6 classes to submit reflection papers related to that week’s readings. The paper can consist of discussion questions for class, critique of an article’s study methodology or interpretation of findings, or broader reflection of the topic (e.g., applications in clinical practice, cultural considerations, ethical issues, new frontiers or hypotheses). Students will be graded on their demonstration of critical thinking of the week’s readings; this cannot just be a study summary. Students must submit 2 reflection papers from Weeks 3-6 and 4 reflection papers during student presentations (Weeks 8-13). Papers should be approximately 1 page, double-spaced and are due each Wednesday by 9:00am EST before each seminar, as indicated on Quercus. Your reflections will often provide the basis for in-class discussion
