Teaching Methods

This course will be taught in the flipped format. Students will be assigned an introductory online lecture every week as well as an empirical article. During class time, I will first assess and reinforce the students’ grasp of basic concepts from the online lecture. They will also be expected to contribute appropriately to class discussions and to assisting the learning of other students. I as the instructor commit to preparing and selecting high-quality materials for each class, at an appropriate level of English. This course also aims students to gain practical experience through voluntary family interview and genogram homework.
