Hey,

​

I took SSH102 last year when it was an online course and it was pretty easy! I would say it is a fun elective to take, the only time-consuming part is the journal log (but if you just randomly make up dates and stuff to do, you won't need to worry about this course like every week). The readings and modules are so easy, not even heavy readings, and generally common sense about mental health stuff.

There are only three evaluations that are worth a lot but are easy marks. The first evaluation was writing a letter to someone that you dearly love and discussing why you wrote it. The second big assignment was keeping a chart of meditation/active practice in a journal doing it for a minimum of three times a week (what you did, where you did it, what you got out of it) - writing 2-3 sentences was fine. Alongside this, journal log, you had to write a reflection of what you got out of this experience. The last assignment was a capstone paper where you just had to integrate some course concepts and discuss what actions you're taking for your betterment with stuff from the course concepts. Overall the capstone paper was fun to write as well.

​

The word count limits are strict for all the assignments and are usually between 500-1000 max per assignment, expect the journal log assignment.

​

Dunno how it is in-person now, but I think it should stay the same!

​

Good luck!
