The Panama City Experience: The Florida State Experience (Fall only)
These sections of The Florida State Experience course support first-year students (FYS) in their engagement and academic success at Florida State University Panama City. Students will explore various institution resources available on the Panama City and Tallahassee campuses. This course involves weekly in-person class meetings, engaging with course material on Canvas, and discussing challenges and successes in and out of school. Students will develop valuable skills to enhance their academic performance and foster connections with peers and faculty. Finally, this course provides a supportive environment to help students transition successfully into university life.

1. Part of the curriculum involves exposing students to "High Impact Practice" opportunities on our campus. These include experiences such as Student Government, RSO involvement, Community service, and other organizations designed to engage students outside of the classroom.
2. One of the goals of offering IDS1107 on our campus is to provide a forum for our small group of incoming FTIC students to establish themselves as a community amongst the larger student body. We have found that a regular meeting and setting of regular goals with these students, as well as connecting them to sophomore/junior mentors helps them to find their place in our community.
3. Through the use of student mentors and student guest speakers from different parts of the campus community, students are directly exposed to peers from a variety of interest groups and backgrounds.
4. The course gives students opportunities to engage in meaningful professional development activities. These actives include resume formulation, connecting students to the FSU career center, and encouraging them to participate in career readiness and community service activities.
5. The course involves a capstone reflection project which asks them to evaluate how the semesters' activities connect to their academic and personal goals. Past reflection assignments have confirmed that students find the experience to be helpful towards these goals.
