pathways: a "life writing" course

the department of english, dr. scott pound, and in cooperation with hospice northwest, offered a "life writing" course for 3rd/4th year 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 .  this course provided 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 a unique opportunity to connect with seniors in the community.  seniors would tell their life story and 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 would put those words into written form.  at the end of the course, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 gave the senior the copy of the written work.  of course 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 were graded on the work, but for most, the greatest reward was connecting with and learning from the senior.  for more on this story including interviews from some 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 visit: http://pathways.lakeheadu.ca/#scott.
