What You'll Learn

Reminiscence is a way to recapture the past and connect to the present's daily lives. It involves not only the discussion of memories and experiences with other people using tangible prompts such as photographs, objects, music, art, but also involves the re-enactment of past events to trigger their half-forgotten memories to bring about joy and laughter. Reminiscence is an effective way to engage with senior and their family members. It can stimulate verbal and non-verbal communication, promote confidence and self-esteem for those who participated in the activity, especially person with dementia. GER402 Reminiscence Arts and Aged Care has an experiential element to equip students with necessary skills and methods to engage senior through a series of reminiscence activities. Students will also have hand-on experiences to design and practice different principles, skills and knowledge related to Reminiscence arts.
