THIS ASSIGNMENT WAS DESIGNED TO FACILITATE MENTAL HEALTH THROUGH INTRAPERSONAL AND/OR INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION.  USING RESULTS FROM AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH ARTICLE, I CREATED A PRESENTATION, FACILITATED THE PRESENTATION, CLASS DISCUSSION, AND ASSOCIATED ACTIVITY, AND WROTE A REFLECTION PAPER ON THE EXPERIENCE. 

WHEN AND WHY I CREATED IT: 

I CREATED THIS THROUGHOUT THE SPRING 2022 SEMESTER, DURING A TIME WHEN I WAS GREATLY STRUGGLING WITH MY MENTAL HEALTH.  MY TOPIC WAS FOCUSED ON HAPPINESS AND SAYING THANK YOU.  UNDERSTANDING THAT I WAS NOT HAPPY IN MY CURRENT SPORTS CIRCUMSTANCE, I USED THIS ASSIGNMENT TO COME TO TERMS WITH MY DECISION TO SAY “THANK YOU” TO SWIMMING FOR THE PAST 14 YEARS OF MEMORIES AND MOVE ON TO A DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE.    

TARGET AUDIENCE:
