- Class Description:
The purpose of this course is to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to lead healthy sexual lives. Recognizing the inconsistency and diverse range of previous sexuality education among students, this course is intended to fill those gaps and provide a solid foundation based on unbiased, medically accurate, and evidence-based information and programs. Sexuality Matters seeks to increase knowledge, build communication skills, help clarify personal values, and dispel myths regarding sexuality and relationships. Sexuality is a part of everyone's lives, and this course takes a comprehensive approach to education. When students are comfortable with their sexuality and can effectively communicate about and advocate for their needs, they are more likely to make informed and healthier decisions. We hope to provide students with tools to help them during their college years and throughout the rest of their lives.
SM is intended for undergraduate students of any major who want to learn how to better understand their sexuality, and/or want experience taking an online course. It is entirely web-based. Students must have access to a computer and the Internet and should have basic computing skills. To self-assess your readiness for e-learning and learn tips for successful e-learning, go to: http://digitalcampus.umn.edu/apply/online-student-resources.html.
