What a complicated world we live in! Living in the 21st century, especially with modern technology all around us, can seem overwhelming and confusing at times. This course provides an overview of topic areas important for not just navigating through our day-to-day activities but also excelling at those activities.

​Topics include:
  • communication skills (at home and in the community)
  • dressing for success, assertive writing & the “hidden” curriculum of life
  • Keeping yourself healthy and safe in your home and community
  • using technology such as GPS & apps for transportation and safety
  • recognizing and responding to emergencies
  • using of social media platforms safely, etc.
  • AND MORE
 Assignments will involve practicing learned skills and going out into the community while practicing social distancing and taking all precautions necessary to stay safe from COVID-19. At some point in our lives, almost everyone experiences the complexities of the world we live in. It becomes very difficult when we’ve learned how to make our way through life one way and are then asked to change some aspect of it as we and the world around us changes. This class will cover vital aspects of living in the 21st century.
