A learning community means simply that you take two classes that are linked to each other, so you learn so much more, and in greater depth. Learning communities involve a common group of students enrolled in a linked group of courses designed to share a common theme. Together, students have the opportunity for deeper understanding and integration of the material they are learning, as well as more opportunities for interactions with one another and their teachers.
Students learn how to build explicit connections between ideas and disciplines.
Courses may focus on fundamental skills, transfer level GE requirements, or a vocational emphasis.
