M6 English for Careers is a course designed to prepare M6 students for university and their future
careers. In the first semester, the course will focus on self-evaluation of personality, skills/abilities in order
to help the students learn more about themselves as individuals. Additionally, the students will conduct
research on university faculties and/or careers which interest them. Once they have a better idea of who
they are and what they plan to study/do in the future, we will then work on incorporating what they have
learned into three main areas: 1) Writing a Personal Statement, 2) Writing a Resume and 3) Practicing
Interviewing Techniques . Lastly, some time will be allotted in class to provide an overview of the major
standardized exams, i.e., GAT/PAT/O-Net and SAT and the students will be given opportunities to take
practice versions of these exams.
Goals/ Expected Learning Outcomes
The students will be able to:
Critically evaluate themselves and their classmates.
Write clearly and systematically using advanced academic composition skills including organization,
vocabulary, grammar and syntax.
Conduct research on university faculties and careers using a variety of different sources with correct
documentation.
Read a wide array of texts for critical evaluation and personal response.
Watch videos and critically respond to them.
Gain a familiarity with common interview techniques.
Apply interview techniques learned in mock-interview situations.
Learn how to structure and write an academic resume, job resume and cover letter.
Demonstrate extended and prepared speaking based around realistic topics and situations.
Expand and develop their academic vocabulary

Course Description: Senior physics is a very challenging course; this section covers modern physics including relativity, quantum dynamics, wave/particle duality, matter/energy conversion, atomic physics, and nuclear physics. Students will need to continue to apply their knowledge of past years of physics, because as always, physics is cumulative. Students will need at least one study hour for each hour of class time, and homework will be intensive. Learning Outcome:
1. Students will apply past experience to new problems, attempting to solve problems and do proofs with more independence than before. 2. Students will take more responsibility for organizing and presenting laboratory results. 3. Students will use new information to think creatively, both for problem solving and analysis of the physical world.

Course Description This course will sample the broad diversity of animal behavior and the behavioral adaptations of animals to the environments in which they live. This course begins with the evolution of behavior, then will move on to topics such as foraging and feeding, defensive and aggressive behavior, courtship and reproduction, migration and navigation, social activities and communication. The study of animal behavior is by nature interdisciplinary - crossing the boundaries between Biology, Psychology and Sociology. An understanding of the behavior of diverse species contributes both to our appreciation of human evolution, and to our ability to preserve biological diversity through conservation. Goals/ Expected Learning Outcomes The students will be able to:
- Learn fundamental principles and concepts in animal behavior.
- Apply these principles to help understand the variety of behaviors and traits observed in the animal
kingdom.
- Increase scientific literacy and communication skills.
- Independently research, explore, and evaluate questions in animal behavior.
- Collaboratively explore ways to acquire data from animal observation.
- Critically examine methodology used to explore research in animal behavior.
- Creatively pursue ways to ask questions about animal behavior and practice developing research
proposals.
- Examine how we think about other animals in relation to our own capabilities.
- Gain an appreciation for the diversity of the natural world!
