Abstract

• A workshop-type course, UGED 1553 Live to Flourish: The Science and Practice of Positive Psychology with a class size of 40, was launched in September 2018 as an elective General Education (GE) course for undergraduates. Post-course qualitative/quantitative surveys and evaluations have been very encouraging.
• To meet the demand for extending knowledge of positive psychology to a bigger pool of students, a new one-unit online GE course on Positive Psychology with a class size of 200 will be developed.
• Contents of the course will be delivered with various micro-modules, for instance, annotated PPT, animated teaching videos, gamified online activities, skills and role play demonstration videos, that best fit the learning to be attained.
• Online assessment, including self-reflection and self-improvement plans, will be incorporated into this online course in order to steer the students toward the applied side of the positive psychology.
