Connecting Learning Across the Institution

Learning occurs all the time and everywhere. Yet most research on learning tends to occur in silos based on stakeholder perspective. This volume seeks to break down these silos and draw together scholars who research learning from different perspectives to highlight commonalities in learning for students, for faculty, for institutions. When we understand how learning is experienced across the institution, we can develop strategies that help support, enhance, and reinforce learning for all. This volume explores what it means to bridge learning across the institution and provides researchers, teachers, and leaders with a roadmap to follow to improve learning for all. It has both a scholarly and a practical bent. Professionals researching student learning, faculty development, or organizational learning will find useful takeaways. For scholars, the volume advances the knowledge about the ways we investigate and study learning across and for various groups of learners. Institutional leaders willbenefit from this research as it collects thinking about learning in its various formats in one location, provides a platform for synthesis, and outlines key questions to ask for thinking more deeply about learning on campus. Instead of thinking of learning as discrete depending on the stakeholder group, this volume highlights the commonalities across all types of learners.
