Students learn to self-pace and write evidence-based scholarly papers using peer-reviewed journals following strict citation formats.2. Presentation skills. Students become incredible presenters and develop confidence in their public speaking. In research, the students become leading experts on their topics, and in some cases the foremost leading expert on ground-breaking inquiries.3. Critical and creative thinking skills. In Seminar, students work collaboratively to research a social problem and develop a new solution. In Research, students uncover missing links in the field and have to design their own studies in order to fill that gap in knowledge. This creates students that learn for themselves and are active participants in acquiring knowledge, as opposed to passive receivers. Capstone students seek out the information and create solutions.
