Projects and Final Reports
Rebecca Genoe, Faculty of Kinesiology and Health Studies
After implementing intergenerational learning seminars in THRC/KIN 240, I wanted to investigate the experiences of the students and the volunteers in learning from each other about the aging process. Secondly, it was my hope to use the information gathered from students and volunteers to improve the structure of the seminars that both students and volunteers find the seminars to be valuable.
