CMTYENGA 2MD3 - Community-Based Learning with McMaster Children and Youth University

3 unit(s)

In partnership with the McMaster Children and Youth University (MCYU), students will take inquiry-based learning activities into Hamilton community schools, community centres and libraries. Completion of CMTYENGA 2MC3 prior to CMTYENGA 2MD3 is recommended. In this course, students will learn how to communicate research effectively to a younger audience and practice leadership, knowledge translation, and project management skills. Students will gain experiential learning opportunities through the deployment of their interactive workshops with youth 7-14 years of age. Additional community engagement experience will also be gained through interacting with McMaster Faculty and students and teachers in the community.
