COORDINATED STUDIES PROGRAMS/LEARNING COMMUNITIES Learning Communities study a major theme from a variety of academic disciplines. A team of faculty and students use critical thinking to study important issues and concerns for the entire quarter. Students enroll for the entire program. Each program is taught by a team of diverse faculty members who conduct lectures and lead student seminars, field trips and group projects. In Learning Communities, students and faculty work together on local and global issues requiring creative and active participation from all those in the classroom. Though separate courses are listed on a students transcript, the program is conducted as one coordinated course, and each program becomes a unique sum, greater than the total of the parts. This innovative approach to teaching and learning has won national recognition for the Seattle Community College District. The sense of community and excitement generated by Learning Communities creates an atmosphere that is especially memorable and profound. For further information, students should contact the Advising Center at their campus and check the quarterly class schedule.
