Enhance Your Learning with Linked Learning Communities
What is a Learning Community?
Learning communities link two classes, typically from different departments, to create an interconnected learning experience. You will be in the same two classes with the same group of students connecting the concepts you learn in one class with the ideas of the other class.
Benefits of a Learning Community
