Events at PCUEvents at PCU
Would you like to participate in Acts of Kindness?
We are looking for 10-12 students who speak good English, of which at least 5-6 should also speak fluent Czech to participate in a positive psychology activity. Students from all schools are welcome!
You will join students who are visiting Prague from DIS (Study Abroad in Scandinavia) and taking a course in Positive Psychology in Copenhagen, Denmark. They are all from American universities on a study abroad semester.
For the activity, DIS will team their students into 5 groups of 4 of their students and 2 of PCU students. For purposes of avoiding language based misunderstandings, it would be ideal to have one student in each of the five groups to be a good Czech speaker.
The groups will receive some money that they can use on an act of kindness anywhere in the city of Prague. Students will all get an introduction to the activity, will have time to plan their activity and then go out into the city to carry out the activity. They will then come back and share their experiences. We will look at these experiences in the light of Positive Psychology theory and research.
All participants will be invited to a dinner after the activity.
Past experience shows that students find the activity very stimulating and they also build some friendships during the activity.
If you are interested, please contact Anna Boguszak anna@praguecityuniversity.cz by Friday 7th April to confirm your participation or if you have any questions.
