Welcome to Learning In Public
Our Guided Portfolios allow you to earn credit for experiences often marginalized in our society. This work, wisdom, and depth is seldom credited or it is devalued because of capitalism, patriarchy, and/or white supremacy, but CU has created these Guided Portfolios to honor and mark these formative experiences.
Please check out the portfolio options below, talk to your lab faculty, and reach out to lips@collegeunbound.edu for any support as you move forward in earning credit for these incredible learning journeys.
