Students will cultivate effective interpersonal skills like empathy and thinking skills such as creativity and problem-solving. The class will strengthen skills in reading, analyzing fiction and non-fiction text tied specifically to innovation and design from authors such as Daniel Pink, Malcom Gladwell, and Tim Brown. This class will also help students develop skills in expository and argumentative writing, along with speaking and listening in a variety of real-world contexts. This course meets the 12th grade English requirement for graduation.
