ABSTRACT

Professional students are increasingly bombarded with numerous forms of negative stress or distress in their pursuit of graduate studies and studies in general. In addition to rigorous course learning expectations and educational institutional stress, students have numerous situational and external stressors. Creating curricula and online delivery mechanisms that maintain the focus on educational pursuit and the achievement of advanced professional competencies, skills, and behaviors is more a matter of curricular design and forethought than a naturally occurring condition within the course. This manuscript is about curricular design intended to reduce negative stress on students engaged in graduate professional education. Developing course delivery to ease learning related stress does not occur, using traditional curricular development approaches. What follows is a student informed approach to creating a low stress online course on Stress Crisis and Coping as an essential skill set needed to function in most aspects of professional work and in human service delivery.
