College Unbound is an advocate for learning wherever it happens. Students earn credit via Learning In Public (LIP) portfolios for robust prior learning. In addition, students learn how to frame and document their lived experiences to earn credit and satisfy the “Big 10” graduation requirements. These credit-bearing habits and practices help students become more effective leaders.
Ten individual portfolio credits you will earn at College Unbound are for demonstrating the skills and capacities needed to lead change: Accountability, Advocacy & Agency, Collaboration, Communication, Creativity, Critical Thinking, Equity & Justice, Lifelong Learning, Problem Solving, Resilience and Well Being.
Independent or Guided Portfolios LIP Portfolios are a way of achieving a specified result; a course of action. Guided Pathways use a comprehensive template to help guide you through your experiential learning.
All new incoming students should focus on their scheduled courses and student projects. In order to start Big 10 or LIP you have to at least be in week 8 of 16 in OLC220 -Learning From Experience.
