Abstract
Curricula in honors programs often include a blend of specialized courses and seminars, undergraduate research experiences, and a culminating senior seminar. Authors present a pedagogical approach for developing and delivering an honors senior seminar that can be adapted for delivery in person, online using a learning management system, or in hybrid format. Students evaluate, integrate, and thoughtfully discuss an array of constructs such as happiness, the meaning of life, passion and purpose, values, motivation, community, self-awareness, mentors, diversity, perseverance, leadership, and gratitude through a series of guided readings, videos, lectures, class activities, and assignments. A detailed overview of the rationale for this course is provided as well as a complete course description, learning outcomes, readings, weekly lessons, and assignments.
