Class Description
This class is an opportunity for the student to create a framework in their mind of how the modern world works by critically examining and sorting incoming information and data from the news, internet, friends, movies, books and the myriad of other sources they come across in daily life. In this course, students see how to use their knowledge and experience of how the world works to help make better, more informed choices about their future. By applying this model of thinking about the world, students will have the tools necessary to help them achieve their own personal mission and unique purpose.
