Have students who need SSc or writing credit or are looking for a non-competitive major? As students come in for their spring quarter registration, remember to recommend EDUC 215 Wellness and Resilience for College and Beyond, now approved for writing credits! The class will be particularly helpful for first year and/or transfer students to get started out with tips and tools to make the most out of their time at UW! It is also great for seniors as they prepare to graduate and enter the workforce! In EDUC 215, students learn skills to enhance their well being in college and in their life in general. Particular focus is paid to skills that help students withstand common difficulties in life, like a disagreement with a loved one, tolerating doing work you don't want to do, and managing negative emotions in a healthy way. Skills will include but will not be limited to mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. Students will also learn about research underlying stress, resilience, and related skill areas. For EDUC 215, there are two times and modalities to take this 5 credit class that also provides SSc credit. The first section will be fully in person meeting for lectures on Thursdays from 2:30-5:20pm PST with a one hour in person quiz section on Fridays for small group activities. The second section is a fully virtual section with virtual lectures on Tuesdays from 11:30am-2:20pm PST and then virtual synchronous quiz sections for one hour on Fridays. Asynchronous accomodations for lecture can be easily coordinated (synchronous participation in the one hour quiz section on Fridays is required). See the attached flyers for additional information and as a tool to share with students. For students who have already taken EDUC 215, recommend our new course EDUC 216: Thriving on the Path to Happiness. This new course will follow the same format as EDUC 215 and build on the skills learned in the first class to help students experience more joy, build stronger relationships, cultivate a growth mindset, and increase opportunities for success and development in personal and professional endeavors. EDUC 216 will be offered on Wednesdays from 2:30-5:20pm PST with one hour quiz sections on Fridays. As with EDUC 215, EDUC 216 is a 5 credit course that provides SSc credits. EDUC 215 (or equivalent) is a prerequisite class for EDUC 216. See the attached flyer for additional details. For the first time in spring 2024, we will be offering a new 5 credit seminar for students who have taken EDUC 215 and 216 called EDUC 317: Emotion Regulation: Dialectics and Application. In EDUC 217, we will take a deep dive into the biological and experience component of many different emotions and think about how to skillful manage them in the context of different professional settings. EDUC 317 will be offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30-10:50am for SSc and writing credit. See the attached flyer for additional details. And for the second time in spring 2024, we will also be offering a 5 credit seminar for students who have taken EDUC 215 and 216 called EDUC 381: Interpersonal Effectiveness and Coaching in Social Emotional Learning. In EDUC 381, we will learn how to teach and coach others in building their own social-emotional skills while also maintaining our own wellbeing so we don't burn out. EDUC 381 will be offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:30am-1:50pm for SSc and writing credit. See the attached flyer for additional details. All four classes will also be a part of the new Education Studies open enrollment, minimum requirement major starting in the fall of 2024. EDUC 215 Wellness and Resilience for College, Beyond and EDUC 216 Thriving on the Path to Happiness, EDUC 381 Interpersonal Effectiveness and Coaching in Social Emotional Learning, and EDUC 317 Emotion Regulation: Dialectics and Applications allow students to work towards their best lives while earning course credit! Remember to recommend these classes before they fill up!

In addition to visiting historical sites and memorials to significant moments in American history, students will meet with foot soldiers from the civil rights movement and community leaders who are continuing to push forward conversations about racial justice and reconciliation. A unique collaboration between community organization Sankofa Impact and the Community Engagement and Leadership Education (CELE) Center, this month-long study away will explore the eras of enslavement, racial terrorism, civil rights, mass incarceration, and abolition activism today by visiting centers of Black history, joy, and resilience. Together we will craft a vision of collective liberation and engage in our own leadership practice. The program is designed to meet several general education requirements and is aligned with the UW major in American Ethnic Studies, minor in Leadership, and our Interdisciplinary Honors curriculum. Courses count toward the Social Sciences and Diversity area of inquiry requirements. Students from all three UW campuses are encouraged to apply, as are students from all majors. Students do not need to be in interdisciplinary or departmental honors to apply for this program. Students will earn twelve credit hours in just one month--for a price that is on par with campus-based summer credits! The program fee ($8695) covers the full credit load, plus housing, meals, and transportation once the program begins. Beyond the program fee students are responsible for flights and minimal out-of-pocket personal expenses during the trip. Those who receive federal financial aid may be able to apply for summer term aid to help cover program costs.

In this course, we will explore this question through a variety of topics related to contemporary design theories and practices in urban planning, landscape architecture, and green technologies. As an introductory course, LA322 aims to offer foundational knowledge relating to living materials and systems, urban ecological design, and biophilia design in the built environment, while exploring opportunities and cultivating creativity for planning and design practices. Course activities will involve a variety of means including lectures, group discussions, guided/self-guided field trips, and creative-based exercises.

How can shapers of the built environment practice effective community engagement in this new social climate? More importantly, how can community engagement be a counterforce that helps reverse our troubling social trajectory and leave a lasting positive impact on the communities we serve? This course will explore the current and future practice of community engagement. We will examine the social psychology of bridging identity groups and explore community engagement?s potential to cultivate shared identities, tolerance, and belonging in the places where we live. We will also learn and practice methods of community engagement, including process design, community event structures, meeting facilitation, and more. -- Jennie Li | Undergraduate + Graduate Program Adviser Pronouns: she/her/hers, they/them/theirs Schedule a meeting - HYBRID HOURS 2-5 PM, M T TH F (virtual availability unless scheduled for in-person) Department of Landscape Architecture | UW College of Built Environments 348 Gould Hall | Box 355734 | Seattle WA 98195-5734 jencyli@uw.edu | larch.be.washington.edu INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK | LINKEDIN | VIMEO We acknowledge the people - past, present, and future - of the Dkhw'Duw'Absh (Duwamish), Muckleshoot (b?q?l?u?ucid), Suquamish (suq'?ab?ucid) and Tulalip (dx?lilap) and other Coastal Salish tribes on whose traditional lands we study, work, and gather. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The Ruesink Lab is recruiting a summer field tech for marine ecology research in Willapa Bay and Grays Harbor, WA. Our projects center on mudflat ecology, interactions among ecosystem engineering species (oysters, burrowing shrimp, eelgrass), and environmental impacts of shellfish aquaculture. We are looking for someone interested in biology and ecology, who enjoys working outside and is curious about the natural history and ecology of Washington's mudflats. Daily duties include, but are not limited to: schlepping around mudflats, accessed by foot or by boat; sampling organisms in the sediment with a clam core; eelgrass and oyster transplanting; and supporting other researchers and techs in the field to get all our sampling done before the tide comes back in. Applicants should be willing to lift and carry ~25 lb weights, walk several miles on soft and uneven ground, wake up near dawn, and stay overnight in southwestern Washington for 3-9 day stretches.
