HMXP 102 - The Human Experience:  Who am I?
Core Commitment Exploration Session - October 26, 2007

The HMXP 102 Exploration session was quite a success.  It was attended by close to 45 participants who enjoyed stimulating conversation and shared experiences.

Before attending the session, participants (HMXP instructors) engaged in reading, "Academic Freedom and Educational Responsibility," a statement published by AAC&U regarding intellectual diversity in undergraduate education.  The reading served as a springboard for discussion centered around how to promote a greater degree of intellectual diversity and perspective-taking in the HMXP 102 course.

Results of the discussions included specific strategies shared among instructors -  suggestions for using assigned readings, building trust among students, developing perspective through analysis of experiences, and many more.  Notes were gathered and compiled and sent to the HMXP director for dissemination among current instructors as well as use in future HMXP instructor training.
