Edited by Mimi Benjamin
Description
While the phrase learning communities has various definitions, at the heart of all programs is the goal of enhancing the student learning experience in the community of others.
This volume provides valuable information about learning communities--from start to finish--including:
historical and theoretical foundations that guide these programs,
structures of learning communities that provide varied opportunities for student participation, with a focus on specific student populations who may benefit from learning community experiences, and
elements of staffing and assessment, as well as an annotated bibliography of recent learning community literature.
The authors consider critical elements of learning community programs and offer recommendations and options for faculty and staff who work with, or hope to work with, this particular curricular and cocurricular learning structure.
This the 149th volume of this Jossey-Bass higher education quarterly series. An indispensable resource for vice presidents of student affairs, deans of students, student counselors, and other student services professionals, New Directions for Student Services offers guidelines and programs for aiding students in their total development: emotional, social, physical, and intellectual.
