The Human Development and Health course teaches the biopsychosocial model, epidemiology, study methods, ethics, and legal issues. The two-hour geriatrics seminar occurs after a large group lecture on Psychosocial Aspects of Aging and Successful Aging. The large group is divided into groups of no more than 10 students. These small groups meet with a geriatrics facilitator (faculty, fellows, nurse practitioner, sociologist and other gerontologists) for an interactive 2 hour session on ageism, successful coping strategies, and quality of life issues for older persons. At the start of the session, the small group views a short documentary ("The Personals"). This is followed by a lively discussion structured with questions by the facilitator.
