From the instructor: Theme: Neuroscience Narratives About How People Change Their Minds (Or Not?) Students in this online asynchronous course will explore the principles of writing effective academic genres by investigating narratives about how neuro-emotional intelligence improves and/or sabotages health and well-being. Questions for consideration include: - How do culture and mass media interfere with social relationships, emotional well-being, physical fitness and academic integrity? - How might neuro-emotional training and recalibration resolve sociological, psychological and physical problem(s)? - How does neuro-emotional intelligence contribute to a person's success in life more than idealized physical beauty or high performance on IQ tests, SAT scores and other standardized exams?
