A student-centred dialogue marks this course's unique learning experience. The dialogue centres on the meaning and make-up of the students' lives by focusing on existentially relevant situations (as captured in evocative pictures and words) that constitute the lived experience of the students' world. With these pictures and words in mind, students carefully organize seminars (their student-centred dialogue seminars) that allow the students to take charge of their learning-its process and content. Through the simple yet revealing act of critical listening, and questioning, students becoming critically aware of their role in the learning process, especially the art of reading people, including themselves.
