LAR-101 Researching and Sharing BCC Resources Assignment

LAR-101 Researching and Sharing BCC Resources Assignment, Fall 2022

Students were given a list of campus resources and asked to choose two that they were interested in to research. They then shared what they learned with their classmates in an informal presentation during our in-person class time. This assignment was given during the first few weeks of the Introduction to Liberal Arts course, when most students are new to campus and the group is still getting to know one another.

LAR-101 Self-Assessment Activity

LAR-101 Self-Assessment Activity, Spring 2022

In preparation for the team project assignment in Introduction to Liberal Arts, I asked students to complete a self-assessment to consider their values, interests and goals, and strengths and weaknesses. The assessment also includes a section for reflection.

I was then able to use the information from the self-assessments to create teams of four students before introducing the team project. I also anonymized, compiled, and shared the information from the self-assessments with the students which allowed me to show them some of the things they had in common with many of their classmates such as a high level of interest in the arts, a tendency towards procrastination, and the determination to succeed.
