Foundations in Critical Reflection

ABST 099 primes the critical reading, thinking, and writing skills necessary for post-secondary success. Students will reflect on, critique and write about readings and spoken material, relating and comparing what they see and hear to their knowledge of human experience. The course employs a critical pedagogy and delivery that integrates talking circles and dialogues, Indigenous story-tellers, and collaborative and experiential learning activities supported by Indigenous guest speakers and Elders.
