Learning through Reflective Service: Native American Experience

This course allows students to learn first hand about the cultures and health care practices of Native Americans through focused, reflective study and professional and community-related service activities. One week of guided on-site service experience at a Native American reservation or urban community is preceded by the establishment of learning goals, readings, independent study, group discussion and reflection. Following the service week, students engage in further reflection to make meaning of the experience, present an oral reflection on the lessons learned from the experience and a seminar on their experience to Creighton students and faculty, and explore career opportunities in the Public Health Service.
