What is a learning community?

A learning community is two or more classes linked together with the same students in each class.

How is joining a learning community different from taking regular classes?

You will experience two subjects as one, therefore making your level of comprehension deeper. Also, you will become closer to your classmates than in a regular class, making learning together easier and increasing your sense of belonging to a community of learners

Why take learning community classes?

If you join a learning community, you will see how knowledge is an interconnected web of understanding rather than just a collection of separate categories.

Learning communities are at the front of the new wave of 21st century education. Why don’t you try one?

You must to register for both/all of the classes in the learning community. There are separate grades for each class, but students cannot withdraw from just one of the classes. They come as an inseparable set.

What do students say about learning communities?

“I felt as if this class [a learning community] was more than a place for learning. When I came to school I would look forward to coming, primarily because I felt so comfortable. Projects were a breeze because of the interest and support from fellow group members and instructors. If I had a choice I would join more of these learning communities. It is a better way of learning, and makes understanding the material more interesting. Interesting material is a lot easier to remember and a lot easier to place in everyday life. “

P.S. Classmates from these learning communities still remain close friends.”
