Learning Communities at Ohlone College
Check back for information about our Fall 2008 semester Learning Communities!
 A learning community is a group of 2-5 classes that are linked together. Faculty collaborate to create common themes, assignments, and to make lessons more interactive. Classes are connected to one another so students can easily see the interrelatedness of all that they study.
Learning Communities for Spring 2008:
- University Express
- Online Learning Community
- Learning Community - English/Theatre
- Learning Community - Speech/Psychology
- Cohorts

Working in a Learning Community has invigorated and forced me to reinvent myself and how I teach. It's terrific to have a pal digging in with you, sharing the challenges and the successes. But most importantly, the learning that the students come away with is jam-packed with those ‘AH HAH!!!’ moments that drew me into teaching in the first place.
