- W2188962756 abstract "Despite problems old and new that threaten the future of US higher education, I see promising signs that our academic culture may actually be improving in deep, meaningful ways. Specifically, I see shifts already underway that could lead to campus cultures that are both more collegial and more productive. If these shifts proceed apace, our colleges and universities could come to look and act more like intentional learning communities and less like the teaching factories or educational shopping malls they too often now resemble. The text that follows has three main aims. First, I’ll attempt to highlight connections and draw parallels between the learning communities movement of the 1990s and the writing-across-the-curriculum (WAC) movement, which originated in the 1970s. I’ll suggest that learning communities are natural offspring and logical extensions of the WAC movement and that both efforts share much in terms of educational philosophy, social values, and pedagogical goals. Given their similar aims and approaches, I’m convinced that leaders of the learning communities movement can profit from 25 years of WAC theory, research, and practical experience. At the same time, by allying themselves with the learning communities efforts, WAC activists may increase the likelihood of realizing their reform agenda. My second goal is to explain why I’m so optimistic about changes in the academic culture of American higher education. I’ll review some of the persistent barriers to instructional and curricular reform that have limited the effects of WAC and related efforts to date and suggest that the timing and circumstances may now be right for learning communities to overcome or at least lower those barriers. I’ll briefly sketch what" @default.
