X1033: Overcome Challenges and Achieve Your Goals in Splash Spring 2020 (Mar. 22, 2020)
Have you ever wanted to learn about physical and mental challenges that many people face and how they adapt to them to lead successful and rewarding lives, allowing them to achieve life's goals? Presented by a Clark student who is completely blind, this inspirational and interactive class will focus on how people who are blind and who suffer from anxiety and depression can use their strengths to overcome challenges and obstacles in life. Even if you don't face these same challenges, this class will provide you with tools and strategies to remain on a positive and meaningful life track, regardless of what difficulties you may face and need to overcome in order to personally achieve your greatest potential and to succeed in whatever goals you set for yourself.


H1034: Difficulties in Urban Public Schools in Splash Spring 2020 (Mar. 22, 2020)
Why do some public school systems allow students to learn more than other school districts? In particular, why is it so often difficult to receive a good education in urban (large city) public schools? What can you do to make a difference? This interactive course will include discussions about how income, race, and common policies in schools negatively impact the education of students in large cities. Although these issues seem enormous, we will also explore what people can do, as individuals and as groups, to make education more equal for all students across the United States.
