Students take a leadership role in the development and implementation of a student-led public health projects part of a team field experience. Students explore the environmental impacts on human health from a public health and ecoliteracy perspective. Students engage in active learning experiences working and mentoring with high school students. Public health project topics align with and support the 3-day immersive EcoliteracySCHOOL field experience. These topics include: Teambuilding Emergency Preparedness Director, Water & Hydration Specialist, Marketing & Creative Director, Mentorship Leader, Grant-writing Specialist, and Mindfulness Instructor, to name a few. Course activities promote collaboration with peers and high-school mentees, project-based applied learning, pursuit of individual interests, use of the evidence-based public health process, and personal and academic leadership and development. Students prepare a project presentation for wider audiences.
