Like Water in the Desert:
Learning Communities Replenished, Renewed, Reimagined
Often scarce and unpredictable, the presence of water in the desert southwest is precious and life-affirming. In uncertain times, rains that punctuate or even end our droughts replenish and renew the landscape. They fill us with hope as we reimagine a more sustainable future. Learning communities may play a similar role in education. How might our responses to pandemic-era challenges help us to reimagine a future for learning communities that is innovative, inclusive, vibrant, and resilient?
The theme for this year’s NLCC Like Water in the Desert: Learning Communities Replenished, Renewed, Reimagined invites LC practitioners to share their innovations in sustaining and renewing learning communities during the pandemic. How have you reimagined your LCs as you respond to changing student needs? How are learning communities replenishing teaching and learning at your institution? How are you planning for a more resilient future even as you face the “droughts” caused by pandemic-era disruptions to education?
