Engage 100 Experience Application: Submission #26

Please outline how your experience will meet your selected objectives? 1. One of our weeks in class will be spent focusing entirely on intentionality in campus engagement and involvement. In addition, peer leaders will have multiple opportunities throughout the semester to present on what struggles and successes they have faced related to campus involvement. For instance, peer leaders will participate in panel discussion answering questions related to involvement.
Students will also research and learn about engagement opportunities through homework. Assignments are noted below:
Students must select and listen to a minimum of three (3) podcasts available from “The More You Nole: A Podcast About FSU,” at https://admissions.fsu.edu/podcast. Students should select podcasts based on what they have a sincere interest in learning more about at and pursuing at FSU. In addition to learning about FSU resources by listening, students will write a reflection on what they learned and how it connects to their plans at FSU.
Students will also write a High School AA Reflection and Game Plan Assignment where they will use what they have learned in class, FSU’s online resources, or informational interviews with campus partners to research opportunities available at FSU that help them thoughtfully consider what they want to accomplish while at FSU given their earned credits.
Students also must attend and write a reflection on one (1) campus cultural, involvement, or wellness activity or event at FSU. Students may choose activities or events that are connected to their interests or plans for involvement at FSU.
Each homework assignment will be discussed in class. Beyond what students research themselves, they will also learn from their fellow classmates about other engagement opportunities.
