Instructor(s):  Strahilevitz, Michal
Email:  ms9@stmarys-ca.edu

In this fully online class, you will learn about research-based techniques for increasing happiness and well-being. The course features lectures, in-class discussions and opportunities to share what you have learned from your weekly assignments. There will be readings and videos assigned, as well as homework. However, the majority of time outside of class will be spent carrying out a wide variety of happiness exercises at least 5 days a week and reflecting upon the effects of your experiences in written assignments and on our online asynchronous platform. There will also be opportunities to discuss and share what you learn with others in the class and to integrate what you have learned in a final written reflection task.
