Course Description

Taught at the Residential Colleges, this course prepares the first-year students to adjust to and benefit from the whole person education of UM. It introduces students to a set of basic study skills and active-learner attitudes that are expected of a university student. Through experiential learning in RC educational activities, learning experiences at UM at large, and the course required e-portfolio practice, students will learn to appreciate selected competencies prescribed as goals of the “community and peer education” of UM. They will also learn how to relate these competencies to their academic performance as well as future career development.

Intended Learning Outcomes (ILO)

Upon completion of the course, students will be able to: 1. explain the difference between studying at secondary school and university (purpose and meaning of university education and personal goals and aspirations and community commitment); 2. explain the difference between UM residential college and a student hostel; 3. demonstrate basic study skills; 4. demonstrate active-learner attitudes expected of a university student; 5. articulate selected competencies prescribed as goals of the “community and peer education” at UM and how these competencies are related to the student’s academic performance and future career development; 6. reflect on experiential learning at RC and in university at large through RC e-portfolio; 7. reflect on peer learning and teamwork through group project and presentation.
