你会学到什么

While each course section is taught by a different instructor, they all cover the same concepts. 以下是你的FYS 100课程要涵盖的主题列表:

文化意识/多样性/残疾

课堂上一直存在着多样性, but in today’s society it is important to embrace it and make positive use of it. This class provides insight on the ways in which our diversity strengthens us as a society.

信息/技术(Canvas, OkraMail, MyDSU)

浏览校园内用于提交作业的各种系统, 教授发邮件, 报名上课, 检查成绩之类的事情可能会让人难以置信. This class provides the “how to” on each of the systems used here at Delta State and how to properly use social media in a college setting.

高等教育概论/学生活动/网络

高等教育的世界与高中非常不同. Studies have repeatedly shown that those students who are more connected on campus are far more likely to earn their degree. This class demystifies higher education and focuses on how to build and use those campus connections.

时间管理

很多深夜披萨店, 宿舍恶作剧, 视频游戏, 电视马拉松, 在院子里玩飞盘游戏(哦，还有作业), 时间太少了! Getting control of your time and using it wisely is the key to success both in and out of class. This class introduces various strategies for managing your time in college to your best advantage.

学习方式/学习技巧

人们以各种方式学习. 正因为如此, it is important for you to figure out how you learn best so that you can gravitate toward instructors and courses which best match your style. Additionally, most students enter college with very little idea of how to properly study. This class provides instruction on various systems for studying effectively.

教育规划/职业探索

人们常说， 千里之行，始于足下. This class guides you in the essential steps needed for well-developed educational and career plans.

通识教育/学术行为/教师互动的价值

Many students find themselves frustrated by the fact that they are required to take general education courses. This class demonstrates the value of general education not only for your chosen major, 但在你的余生里. It also provides critical information designed to help you avoid academic misconduct and plagiarism and help you interact with faculty most effectively.

特殊沟通/冲突解决

One of the challenges college students often face is how to effectively manage their relationships with their friends, 同学们, 和室友, 等. This class addresses ways to effectively communicate with your peers and provides effective tools to resolve conflict.

关键/创造性思维

For years you have probably been told that critical and creative thinking are extremely important to college success. 然而, most students are never taught how to engage in critical/creative thinking, 甚至不知道这些词是什么意思! This class provides clarification of these terms and how to apply these skills.

健康/健康/压力/营养

在大学, 你必须协调任务, 工作, 类会议, 课外活动, 还有social事件. 通常没有人提醒你正确饮食, 保证充足的睡眠, 锻炼, 基本上要确保你照顾好自己. This class focuses on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle (both physically and emotionally) while diving in to college life!

图书馆

For many college students, the library can be an extremely intimidating place. This class guides you in developing the skills to utilize the library as a place for reSearch and general study. It also emphasizes the importance of applying those same skills to both virtual and physical resources that extend beyond the doors of the campus library.

资金管理

大学学位将为你打开许多经济上的大门, but its ability to do so will be seriously curtailed if you do not manage your finances wisely while you are in college. This class provides strategies designed to ensure that you will graduate from college on a firm financial footing.

讲师的选择

上面列出的所有主题都是第一年的必修课程. This leaves 3-4 additional 类会议 in which your instructors can cover whatever material they feel would most benefit their students.
