Description
To give students a relevant and “authentic task”—a real world problem or challenge [such as health care inequality within poor urban communities]—that they, as a team and as individuals, must explore and solve with cross-disciplinary thinking. Instruction will be filtered through this authentic task with students seeing what they are learning and why they are learning. Students will complete a project that they will present publicly at the end of the semester. It is noted that the project could be completed by the whole class, or groups of students working on individual projects.
