Students in this course study a variety of fitness-wellness topics while initially and summatively garnering personal fitness-wellness data in both academic and laboratory settings. Collected data are synthesized and critically appraised, resulting in the construction of individualized fitness-wellness programs implemented and periodically re-evaluated over the course of the semester via reflective journal writing; and periodic quizzes and examinations that tie lecture theories to laboratory practices in critical thinking-peer teaching contexts. Laboratory activities help the individual discover his/her needs for achieving and maintaining high level wellness.
