WLMS staff had a great time learning various instructional strategies from colleagues to engage and educate students in their curriculum!
Some of our students spent the day at the U of I College of Public Health learning about the aspects of college and what the College of Public Health has to offer. They started with a student panel talking to current college students about their experience, then moved through various lab stations learning how researchers learn about and solve public health problems, and ended their day with a presentation and activity in a mental health workshop! #wlcomets #collegevisit #universityofiowa #publichealth
