Abstract

This chapter focuses on how student learning needs to be intentionally designed to consider both what happens in and out of the classroom. The chapter focuses on student learning within a community college context, where co-curricular engagement looks much different than at a four-year school, specifically on how community colleges engage in design thinking principles related to curricular and co-curricular learning around equity and inclusion issues. Additionally, it is important to note that while some community colleges have residential opportunities for students, approximately 28% in the U.S., most are considered commuter campuses. Creating co-curricular opportunities on a commuter campus can be more challenging, however not impossible, and often adds value to the community college experience.
