Learning Community
Fall 2008

Bridges to Success by Breaking Barriers
English 84 (Basic Writing II: Paragraph to Essay)
and English 81 (Reading Tactics II)

Overall this learning community is designed to support students in discovering how they can best achieve success in college. Both professors will collaborate on assignments and journals, encouraging students to take charge of their learning, reading, and writing goals. Students will investigate learning styles and multiple intelligences, and become aware of their own learning strengths to develop into active learners. Frequently, readings will be shared in both classes and some tests will count in both classes. Students will create maps, outlines, and charts for both reading assignments and writing assignments.
