WGS 402 Engaged Learning Practicum (1-6)
This course connects feminist theory and practice, and is designed around Service-Learning at a practicum site. The readings explore leadership, feminist grassroots organizing, Service-Learning and civic engagement, feminist activism, and difference and cultural competence. Students will have the opportunity to translate the knowledge, skills, and critical thinking they have learned in the classroom to actual practice, to observe and work with professionals who are addressing women’s/gender issues in the field, and to reflect on their own roles as future leaders and professionals.
