Module 3, Creating a Learning Community/Fostering Student Success

There are three components to this module:

  • Building Community in Your Classroom
  • Building a Student-Centered Course Supporting Cognitive and Noncognitive Student Outcomes
  • Building Student Belonging, Resilience, and Agency into Your Course

We think this content will help give you some new ideas for your course. Post in the discussion, and then drop into one of the live sessions. The first live session for Module 3 is this Friday, July 2; you can RSVP for the session online. We can’t wait to hear what you learned from Module 3.

If you have enrolled but haven’t yet checked out the Summer Institute course, now is a great time.
