Reading, Writing, Learning: Cindy Hicks Chabot College Title 3 Basic Skills Coordinator, 1993-94 Former WRAC Center Coordinator, 1999-2002 Learning Connection Project Development Coordinator, 2005-now   From the  WRITING AND READING ACROSS THE CURRICULUM CENTER  to the LEARNING CONNECTION
Integrating Writing and Reading Come gather ‘round the fire to hear stories from long ago.  In 1993-1994, three events converged at Chabot College: 1. We received a $5 million Title 3 grant to address, in part, basic skills in English, ESL, and Math.  Our Student Services area was funded to create a Tutorial Center. 2. The College converted from quarters to semesters, so curriculum had to be adjusted. 3. We had recently hired many new tenure-track English instructors.
Title 3 We had proposed combining our Reading Center and our Writing Center. WHY? ,[object Object],[object Object]
Research   Project Obligated by Title 3 to integrate our Reading Center and Writing Center into a Writing and Reading Across the Curriculum (WRAC) Center, English instructors used the opportunity provided by the funding, quarter-to-semester conversion, and new instructors to devote two quarters to research in order to rethink our curriculum. 5. The results were “Articulated Assumptions” and the “Throughline.”  4. We attended conferences, enrolled in classes, and read in order to inform ourselves about teaching reading and writing to adults.  We shared what we learned with one another. 3. We attended conferences, enrolled in classes, and read in order to learn about the use of computers in teaching writing. 2. We began our research by asking questions in order to learn our common beliefs and values and to determine areas in which we didn’t agree. ,[object Object]

From WRAC to the Learning Connection What is the Learning Connection? In brief, it is  a cross-curricular, learning support collaboration among students, faculty, and staff. The Learning Connection strives to be innovative, collaborative, creative, efficient, and need and data driven as it pursues resources and opportunities to support teaching and learning.  More specifically,  the Learning Connection is made up of the learning support programs offered through Academic Services, including: Tutorials, the WRAC Center, the Math Lab, the Language Center (ESL), ChabotLink peer advising, and a burgeoning Center for Teaching and Learning.  Two additional centers are being developed:  The Communications Center and a World Language Center.  In addition, two programs are being successfully piloted at the present time:  Peer Led Team Learning (two chemistry classes and one math class) and the Learning Assistant program.
In other words,Chabot College is striving to move from…
Separate Centers, Budgets, Tutoring Programs

  • 14. From WRAC to the Learning Connection What is the Learning Connection? In brief, it is a cross-curricular, learning support collaboration among students, faculty, and staff. The Learning Connection strives to be innovative, collaborative, creative, efficient, and need and data driven as it pursues resources and opportunities to support teaching and learning. More specifically, the Learning Connection is made up of the learning support programs offered through Academic Services, including: Tutorials, the WRAC Center, the Math Lab, the Language Center (ESL), ChabotLink peer advising, and a burgeoning Center for Teaching and Learning. Two additional centers are being developed: The Communications Center and a World Language Center. In addition, two programs are being successfully piloted at the present time: Peer Led Team Learning (two chemistry classes and one math class) and the Learning Assistant program.
