Class Visits

Tours

Bring your students to see the Learning Commons. They'll feel welcomed by our open floorplan and friendly staff as they learn about the resources we have to offer: 

• Computers and printers
• An A&P Lab
• The Honorlock Room for taking tests
• Our Language Lab helps with Spanish courses 

When students are familiarized with the Learning Commons early in their semester they are more likely to come in, ask for help, and make use of the above resources.

Workshops

Each semester, our Learning Specialists, with the collaborative effort of faculty, and our Academic Success Coaches create and provide workshops for a variety of Math and Science classes, as well as reviews for the materials currently taught in ENC1101 and ENC1102.

Success workshops are a great resource for students who could benefit from time management skills, want to overcome test anxiety, or would like to advance their college success skills.

Boot Camp

Each Fall and Spring semester, the Learning Commons hosts one-hour course introductions and assignment previews for common first-year classes. Boot Camps are a fantastic way to learn more about your classes before they begin.
