Advancing Equity through Multi-Campus Learning Communities

The primary purpose of this research is to share insights gained from developing and teaching a new, multi-campus course. We ask: what are the unique contributions and challenges of developing a cross-campus, collaborative learning model for teaching planning and equity related topics? How and why did the zoning for equity collaborative learning model evolve over time? What are the lessons learned and takeaways from such a pedagogical innovation? We answer these questions by analyzing the following data: archived course materials and anonymous student evaluations, transcripts of the guided discussions among faculty who developed and offered the course, and transcripts of the interviews of former-students who took the class.
