Sexuality and sexual health
Sexuality and sexual health
STEP 1:Reflect on our sexuality course. In this step, you are asked to revisit your work and the work of your peers. Then give yourself space to reflect on what matters to you. Take 5 minutes to free write after you complete the following. Your notes can be raw or refined, you simply need to demonstrate engagement (~500 words; 10 pts)
Revisit course work:
Your Takeaway notes from the quarter.
Revisit your reflective essays, like the initial messages, racism in sexuality research, gender revolution, the Nagoski text, the sexual orientation videos, sexuality and disability, and other notes/reflections.
Poke around our Padlets (linked in modules)
Take a tour of at least two projects from your classmates.
Questions to Consider:
What does sexuality mean to you? What stands out as important?
Where did you start? Where are you now?
What did you hope to learn? What did you learn?
What do you have questions about? What do you want to learn more about?
How has your understanding of sexuality shifted or been reinforced through our course experience (e.g., text content, class discussions and activities, group research project)? This can be about your personal understanding, understanding of US or other cultural context, etc.
Reminder, you do not need to address all of these. The goal is to find questions that help you reflect on what you learned
STEP 2. DESCRIBE SEXUALITY AND SEXUAL HEALTH (big picture) (~1-2 paragraphs) (10 pts)
Write you current understanding of sexuality/sexual health. You can adopt or adapt models shared in class or create a new one. Offer an explicit description of what sexuality and sexual health include/are about.
Why is your perspective important in relation to sexuality and sexual health broadly and/or to you personally?
STEP 3. EACH ONE TEACH ONE:
What do you want other people to know? Imagine you had to explain to someone what you learned in our class. Imagine you could talk to your younger self, to someone you care about who has not had much sexuality education, or imagine you are building a new sex education curriculum. What would you include?
DEFINE and DESCRIBE at least 3 take home points that are meaningful to you (10 pts each). As you see fit, connect what you’re taking away from this course to your training at UWB and/or future life/work. Consider how concepts from this class are relevant to you and your path as you envision it today.
Each take home point is expected to be roughly a paragraph. However, you are welcome to use bullet points or other structures to communicate your points.
For each take home point:
a) Name it,
b) Explain what it is and what it means (how did you learn about it – what’s your class-related source) – be sure to include citations, where appropriate,
c) Express why you think it is an important point to take away from this course.
Note: This can draw from course texts, lecture, discussion, or group projects. It can be about specific sexuality-related content or about process and activities. At least one take home must be related to sexuality specifically.
