JAZYMN BLACKBURN: I'm interested in sociology because I'm

interested in animal behavior.

I've always studied animal behavior on my own growing up,

and then I became interested in people behavior.

So, I'm interested in studying sociology

so I can understand society as a working ecosystem of people.

I'm Jazmyn Blackburn,

I'm in the Class of 2019, I'm studying sociology.

My academics do really do supplement my service work

in really interesting ways.

So, I do pursue classes that I feel align

with my philosophy in education.

I want to be able to educate the next generation of youth

to help them find their place.

Princeton Nursery School is a community partner with the Pace

Center through Community House.

Since my freshman year, I've been involved as a volunteer

and then I became the project leader

for the Princeton Nursery School Program and the connection

with the University.

So I bring volunteers, I recruit volunteers,

get them engaged in the community,

help support parents and teachers in bringing up

these really amazing children that go to the nursery school,

and that's a project that I hope to continue

for the rest of my time at Princeton.

See all-- so all the black is the water, right?

That's a lot of water, and then all the white is the land.

I think that early childhood is definitely

a very influential time in a person's life.

But, what I really treasure about working

with young children is that they have this capacity to them

to learn just about anything.

And they have their whole life really

to fulfill who they're going to become.

It's really an incredible feeling

when you see a child very early on who

has very primary perceptions of the world

and just being able to build on those

throughout their entire life.

Does it make a sound?

CHILD: There's not enough land here.

JAZYMN BLACKBURN: Not enough land yet.

My goal is really

to leave a legacy Princeton for future project leaders

and the connection, the bond between this community partner

and the Pace Center.

I think that it's really important

that encounters of service don't just happen and disappear,

but that they're perpetuated, and honestly I'd

love to see some of the children I worked with in five

or 10 years and hear their stories

and hear how they're doing.

Sugata Mitra: The Future of Education- clip 2 - Duration: 0:40.

Well, actually what the numbers told us is the following...

groups of children - ok everything in this is important - groups is important.

Groups of children, unsupervised (another important word - unsupervised)

given access to the internet in a safe and public place (two important words - safe and public)

will in a period of nine months, go from a computing literacy level of zero

to that of the average office secretary in the West.

UK's Unique Education Abroad Opportunity in Amsterdam - Duration: 3:39.

So, this year for the first-time UK's office of LGBTQ Resources is excited to partner with

Dr. Kristen Mark in UK's College of Education to create this wonderful hybrid experience

that looks at gender and sexuality in the Netherlands and in Kentucky.

The program was created because the Netherlands has some of the best sexual health outcomes

in the world.

So, we wanted to learn about how they do that.

Being immersed in their culture for an entire month really got me familiar with their practices

and what they believe in.

Just the setting, it really makes you want to pay attention.

If I had taken this class on campus, I would have passed, I certainly would have passed,

but I probably wouldn't have remembered the material in the same way because I was immediately

applying it to real life.

I think this particular program has a lot of strengths in that it's very interdisciplinary.

We incorporate graduate students and undergraduate students in the program and I think that offers

a nice learning environment for both of those groups.

It's more than just sitting in a classroom, it's real-life application and analysis of

yourself, your society and other climates and communities.

It was very eye-opening to see people with all these different ideas and perspectives

So, I think it's incredibly important that we have a course that is intentionally and

openly marketed as a partnership with LGBTQ resources because I think it draws in and

provides a space for students who wouldn't engage in an education abroad experience because

of any number of anxieties.

To be provided an option where you're not just accepted but highlighted, I mean it makes

all the difference.

It's definitely a very interesting experience and something that is very inclusive in general.

This is a course that Dr. Mark has offered for several sessions, summer sessions now,

but we have lots of new opportunity in this partnership.

We are helping incorporate some domestic dialogue before departure.

It'll be valuable for students to be able to take some of the specific issues that we

face here in the Commonwealth to the organizations that we visit in the Netherlands and then

once we come back to also be able to continue with, 'how can we move forward, how can we

make this a more inclusive space?'

Taking all of that knowledge and connecting it back to lived experience ,not only in the

Netherlands, but here in Kentucky...so being able to as a final product produce some real

change and energize a new generation of Kentucky leaders.

I really think this adds another layer to it.

I think it's really important to be identifying or examining our own circumstances and our

own climate.

This is a dynamic course with multiple components both here and abroad, taught by folks who

really care about moving this dialogue forward and I think those pieces make this experience

rather unique and something we hope students will seek out more info on and join us.

If you're interested in seeing a new perspective, expanding your point of view, definitely consider

taking this course.

It will open up new avenues for you and you get to experience a brand new culture that's

completely different from anything that you see here in the United States.

I think it's really important that when you do go off and learn these incredible things,

to bring it home and to make your own community a better place that I really think that

this program encourages that.
