Students are expected to attend both weekly class meetings and complete weekly assignments while maintaining consistent engagement in their experience-based work. NOTE: Students must have experience-based work in place and complete the required pre-registration form in order to register for this summer session. Experience-based work placements may be in any field and must be confirmed in order to complete registration for this course. Once SLC Embedded has confirmed your placement with your supervisor, we will send your name to the Registrar's office to complete the registration process.)Experience-based work may be in any field. Please see SLC EmbeddEd on MySLC for more information including how to register for SLC EmbeddEd courses, info session dates/recordings, FAQ for students, and resources for finding experience-based work. Students are advised to begin looking for experience-based work opportunities 3-6 months in advance, ideally before the summer session.
This brief summer session will explore multiple levels of workplace communication, including the exchange of information needed to complete a job or work collaboratively; community building and networking; and describing your work to others. Students will be invited to integrate their internship experiences through class discussion, experiential activities, collaborative group work, and observation journals. The goal is for students to gain an academic and experiential understanding of key concepts, which students may apply this semester and beyond.
SLC EmbeddEd courses are offered in collaboration with campus partners including Career Services; Community Partnerships and Engagement; the Learning Commons pre-professional advisors, Alumni Relations, Health + Wellness.
