Course objectives
The purpose of this course is to help students realize the ways in which they think about personal and professional topics that support their development. Specifically, how their own experience (both personal and professional), which they have had up to now create their perception of themselves within their future careers. All the thematic blocks will be based on the students’ self-experience which they bring with them to the course and which arises in the course of instruction. The course is inspired by the concept of Systemic Modelling and the Personal Development Plan model. The aim of the block course is to enable students to have real self-experience with selected themes (see themes-outline) of personal and professional development through experiential learning with the emphasis on reflection.
Learning outcomes
Teaching outcomes: After completing the seminar the student will: • have basic insights into his/her own process of self-reflection in relation to the selected themes (see themes – outline). • have basic insights into several selected themes (see themes – outline) of personal and professional development.
