Content and Methodology

This course offers a holistic approach to resilience, equipping students with a rich understanding of personal and team-level resilience and providing valuable insights and practical skills for navigating challenges effectively.

Through a combination of contemporary theories and practical applications, students will gain knowledge and practical tools they can use for personal growth and contribute to the resilience of their peer groups and communities.

The following sessions are covered:

Understanding stress, its sources, and manifestations
Personal resilience
Team resilience
Emotion regulation
Physical well-being
Leveraging social connections

We are going to use the following student-centered pedagogical methods: collaborative learning (e.g., interactive classes, small group tasks, and discussions), experiential learning (e.g., using various tools that would help students to learn about the topic and develop their skills at the same time), and design thinking (by encouraging creative and innovative problem-solving strategies).
