The Learner-Centered Classroom: Building Rapport and Community
The retention research is irrefutable that student success has an
affective dimension--that is, student success is definitely tied to how
students feel in the classroom and at their institution. Studies done
over the last twenty-five years suggest that one of the most crucial
factors in helping students complete their degrees involves creating an
inclusive atmosphere of community. The literature shows that this
affective dimension influences the depth with which students learn our
disciplines and their development of critical thinking skills. This
program will suggest practical strategies for creating a sense of
community within the classroom so that the classroom environment is
warm, safe, and inclusive.

Creating and Maintaining a Climate of Civility on Campus
Many faculty members decry a perceived lack of civility on campus.
Addressing their concerns requires asking and exploring several
fundamental questions. What does "civility" mean? Why is it important?
What is the dividing line between legitimate debate and classroom
disruption? How are competing claims to academic freedom (by students
and faculty members) to be resolved? When does lawful expression turn
into prohibited harassment?

universities in the United States and Canada.
