Course Proposal
Workflow Step: CHRISTIAN SERVICE, Christian Service
Description
This course presents the content, methods, and safety measures used for cooperative initiatives and challenge course facilitation. Students will learn to use and implement the challenge course as a personal growth and development tool for different age groups and diverse populations. Through hands-on facilitation of high and low ropes elements, students will explore group dynamics, leadership, and therapeutic recreation techniques. The course includes a service-learning component, where students facilitate programs and participate in therapeutic recreation experiences, applying their skills in real-world settings to foster community wellbeing. Personal reflection after each event will be completed to help students grow in servant leadership. An off-campus field experience of up to four days may be required.
