Writing Centers and Learning Commons presents program administrators, directors, staff, and tutors with theoretical rationales, experiential journeys, and go-to practical designs and strategies for the many questions involved when writing centers find themselves operating in shared environments. The chapters comprehensively examine the ways writing centers make the most of sharing common ground. Directors, coordinators, administrators, and stakeholders draw on past and present attention to writing center studies to help shape the future of the learning commons and narrate their substantial collective experience with collaborative efforts to stay centered while empowering colleagues and student writers at their institutions. The contributors explore what is gained and lost by affiliating writing centers with learning commons, how to create sound pedagogical foundations that include writing center philosophies, how writing center practices evolved or have been altered by learning center affiliations, and more. Writing Centers and Learning Commons is for all stakeholders of writing in and across campuses collaborating on (by choice or edict), or wishing to explore the possibilities of, a learning commons enterprise.

Educators’ most important work is to help students develop the intellectual and social strength of character necessary to live well in the world. The way to do this, argue authors Bena Kallick and Allison Zmuda, is to increase the say students have in their own learning and prepare them to navigate complexities they face both inside and beyond school. This means rethinking traditional teacher and student roles and re-examining goal setting, lesson planning, assessment, and feedback practices. It means establishing classrooms that prioritize ▪ Voice—Involving students in “the what” and “the how” of learning and equipping them to be stewards of their own education. ▪ Co-creation—Guiding students to identify the challenges and concepts they want to explore and outline the actions they will take. ▪ Social construction—Having students work with others to theorize, pursue common goals, build products, and generate performances. ▪ Self-discovery—Teaching students to reflect on their own developing skills and knowledge so that they will acquire new understandings of themselves and how they learn. Based on their exciting work in the field, Kallick and Zmuda map out a transformative model of personalization that puts students at the center and asks them to employ the set of dispositions for engagement and learning known as the Habits of Mind. They share the perspectives of educators engaged in this work; highlight the habits that empower students to pursue aspirations, investigate problems, design solutions, chase curiosities, and create performances; and provide tools and recommendations for adjusting classroom practices to facilitate learning that is self-directed, dynamic, sometimes messy, and always meaningful.

A vibrant, engaging read, the text covers topics essential for all peer tutors, across writing, mathematics, the sciences, languages, and other disciplines: the brain-based reality of learning, active and collaborative pedagogies, the role of learning centers in colleges and universities, models for tutoring, the transition to college, metacognition, study strategies, online environments, and much more. An ideal supporting text for both tutor training programs and courses for peer educators, this book provides support for learning and writing center administrators in welcoming college students to the field of peer-led learning and for tutors in the work of acting as guides and mentors to the fields of inquiry that exist within the academy.

"Universities are refocusing on pedagogy--how we teach and learn what we know--and they have placed that work in new centers for teaching and learning (CTL). In this book, the author maps the landscape of 1,200+ US centers and programs --including medical and professional school programs-- through another approach: coding of their websites. This data allows insight into CTL strategy and operations, and it offers a picture of a fuller near-population of centers (rather than a small sample of center directors)"--

A learning center is a defined space where materials are organized in such a way that children learn without the teacher's constant direction. This book offers guidelines that will help preprimary and primary school teachers organize and manage learning centers in the classroom. Chapter 1 describes the advantages of using learning centers and explains what a learning center classroom looks like. Chapter 2 focuses on organizational and management concerns, such as arranging the room, scheduling the day, previewing and reviewing activities, limiting the number of children working in the centers, and monitoring their choices. Chapter 3 considers the role of the teacher in assessment, the planning and setting up of learning centers, interaction, and arbitration. In chapters 4 and 5, types of learning centers appropriate for preprimary and primary education are discussed in terms of the rationale for the center, the integration of developmental skills into learning in the center, organizational suggestions, and sample activities. Chapter 4 discusses preprimary centers for art, table games, discovery, dramatic play, blocks, music, and construction, and library and gross motor centers. Chapter 5 looks at learning centers appropriate for primary grades, including centers for creative writing, reading, spelling, handwriting, social studies, science, and mathematics, library centers, and "active primary centers," which function as extensions of the centers discussed in chapter 4. A list of resource books is included in both chapters 4 and 5. Chapter 6 suggests first steps for the teacher considering the conversion to a learning center classroom. (AC)
