WACUP

This is our connection to Life, the universe, and everything! WACUP is an acronym that stands for a Willingness to Achieve, Communicate, Understand, and Participate. Feel free to explore options and ideas for writing and reflection.

Here is a quick tutorial on how to post in Flipgrid!


You may have to click on the arrow in the box in the upper right-hand corner.

This is still trial and error for me but try posting a flipgrid video here using the code:

Week 1 code: wacup

Week 2 code: 2849a7bc

Week 3 code: c5985ab8

Week 4 code: e2deabf8 (watch the video below first!)

Week 5 code: 3b3d7185 (watch the video bellow first!)

Week 6 code: b65e2d9e (watch the GI Joe Fallacy video below first).

Week 7 code: 305bd7b2 (watch quick video first).

Week 8 code: 6db77c8c (watch two videos first)

These quick videos will act as our WACUP sessions. I will put a new code in every week and post it here.

WACUP Week #4: Check out this video Tara and I made! Report under Week 4's Flipgrid your thoughts.

Questions to consider? Can you think of a time when your actions helped or hindered a situation? Give me an example!

WACUP Week #5: Watch the video here and post a Flipgrid response to it. What are your strengths you focus on when you are feeling down? How is it important to stay positive during difficult times?

WACUP Week 6: The GI Joe Fallacy. This is from the Yale Course about the Science of Happiness. Please share some healthy habits you have for bringing happiness to your life. What are some examples of things that you thought would bring you happiness but it really didn't?

WACUP Week 7: Here is another quick video on the Science of Happiness. What are your thoughts about this subject? Do you think this is a worthwhile study? Why is it important to understand the science of happiness?

WACUP Week 8: Here is the WACUP video for week 8. I had the opportunity to interview Leslie from the Restorative Justice Project in Hancock County. There are two videos to watch. The first one gives you an overview of Restorative Justice and the second video is my discussion with Leslie.

This is a link to the entire Yale Course on the Science of Happiness! You will need to create an account, and you don't get a certificate if you don't pay the money. But the information is free and that doesn't mean you can't get credit for it! Let me know if you are interested in this class. How cool would it be to take a class from YALE!
