Monograph #39
Integrating the First-Year Experience: The Role of First-Year Seminars in Learning Communities
Jean M. Henscheid, Editor
Produced in association with the Washington Center for Improving the Quality of Undergraduate Education
Integrating the First-Year Experience presents 14 case studies from institutions that have successfully combined first-year seminar and learning community initiatives. Each case provides an overview of program history, structure, and administration and includes a discussion of outcomes assessments related to the programs described. The monograph offers a variety of strategies for linking seminars to learning communities and for involving faculty, peer leaders, and other offices in the implementation of such efforts. Because the cases are drawn from a range of institutional types, faculty and administrators from all types of campuses will find pertinent and valuable information for building, sustaining, and improving learning communities programs with first-year seminar components.
