About the LIB 201 Co-Curriculum

Why a LIB 201 Co-Curriculum?

The intent of the co-curriculum is to provide an opportunity for intentional student learning and development which complements the content and skills goals of the course. This co-curriculum is based in theories of intercultural and multicultural competence, as well as the experiences of the faculty and students. The LIB 201 Co-Curriculum was implemented through all sections in Fall 2010.

LIB 201 co-curricular model

The co-curricular model was designed to reflect the interaction between the course content, the dynamics of collaborative learning, and the progression of intercultural development. Each stage represents content and co-curricular events, as well as locations for assignments and self reflection for the students. The catalyst of development and movement from one place to another is deep reflexivity by the individual student and the class as a whole.

Course requirements

One event in each category in developmental sequence, four total.
The co-curricular component equates 15-20 percent of the students’ final grade. This should include reflections and synthesis assignments.
