Exeriential learning is the process of making meaning in the world and creating knowledge from direct experience. Aristotle once said, "For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them." The Chelsea Center promotes learning through doing and reflecting on the process, which is often contrasted with rote learning. Learners make discoveries and experiment with knowledge firsthand rather than hearing or reading about others' experiences. The Chelsea Center believes learning is not a spectator sport.
Miriam Foundation was chartered in 1910 as Miriam No. 17, a local chapter of the national organization United Order True Sisters, Inc. (UOTS).

Make an appointment with one of our Writing Coaches at: http://webster.mywconline.com Students in all academic disciplines are invited to bring to the Writing Center papers in any stage of planning, drafting, revising, or editing. In the Writing Center, we will set you up with an individualized coaching session. Graduate coaches are available for Webster graduate students. Students from Webster's extended campuses are invited to send their papers to the Online Writing Center. Writing Center coaches help students develop strategies to learn how to improve and polish their writing skills and meet predetermined assignment goals. The coaches will not write or edit papers for students; instead, they will listen, read carefully, ask questions, and provide guided practice to build confidence in the student's own writing and editing abilities. We believe we will better assist you as "coaches" than as proofreaders or editors. In your session, your coach will: * Ask questions about the assignment and your paper * Read your paper * Comment on global issues (focus, development, organization, logic, clarity) * Help you determine where you might tighten and polish your prose * Discuss documentation and citation conventions * Point out patterns of mechanical and grammatical problems and provide suggestions on how you can learn to recognize and correct them Stop by and see us sometime in the Academic Resource Center!
This page is designed to provide information about the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program at Webster University, announcements about upcoming WGST events, and items of interest to Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies students and faculty. The Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program is based on the principles of social justice established by the founding organization of Webster University, the Sisters of Loretto. Courses in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGST) are informed by feminist learning and research, focusing on the physical, psychological, social, political, and economic factors that empower and oppress women. Learning Goals for the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program The learning goals for the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program reflect recommendations from the National Women’s Studies Association. Upon completion of the program, students should: • Distinguish between sex and gender, including shifting definitions of “woman” and the social construction of gender, • Explain feminist theories, including standpoint theory, intersectionality, and womanism and demonstrate knowledge of key feminist theorists, such as Audre Lorde and Adrienne Rich; • Analyze the role of men in the empowerment and oppression of women; • Identify women’s contributions to history, activism, waves of feminism, culture, politics, science, religion, and the arts and the variation in women’s experiences across nations, cultures, time, class, race/ethnicity, ability and other social statuses, identifying strategies for social change; • Demonstrate critical thinking about major cross-cultural and global issues or “big questions” pertaining to contemporary women, such as domestic violence, reproductive rights, the shifting definition of motherhood, white privilege, male privilege, heterosexual privilege, the gendered construction of knowledge and social institutions, and the potential for interlocking oppression at the intersections of multiple social statuses (e.g., race/ethnicity, social class, gender, sexuality); • Produce independent research reflecting competency in one or more of the content areas, constructing arguments with evidence obtained from research that demonstrate competency locating, evaluating, and interpreting diverse sources, including statistics; • Apply research and knowledge for individual transformation, social transformation, and global citizenship.
The School of Communications at Webster University operates with one goal in mind — to educate and prepare its students to excel as skilled professionals in a global field of communications. To achieve this goal, the school takes a hands-on approach to learning. Students work with professional-grade media equipment as early as their freshman year. Internships connect students with more than 300 employers across the nation. And most students graduate with a professional portfolio in hand. Sixteen distinct majors with different areas of emphasis are available at the undergraduate level, while the graduate program offers master's degrees in five diverse fields of communications. Classes can be taken at campuses throughout the United States and around the world. For some students who qualify, airfare to one of our global campus locations is covered by the university.
