Welcome to Season 3: Learning to Learn 

Welcome to our third season of Instructional Ecology! This season is a part of MTC Interconnections and we move into new ways of observing and understanding our instructional community connections as we explore our guiding topic.

At the CTE, we constantly think about how people learn to learn. But learning to learn isn't a single skill - it's a dense, dark star; it's a complex network and nexus of skills and situations that reward deep exploration and evolving understanding. One of MTC's goals is to "create lifelong learners," so this season explores how we, across the college, currently teach and foster those lifelong learning skills. To find out exactly how we teach and engage with learning skills and experiences, we talk to professors and staff across the college. We explore some possibilities about how we as an instructional community can help our students with lifelong learning skills they can adopt and apply as transferrable to many other places beyond a single class. Better learning can mean better success for our students and a richer worklife at our college. Join us this season to continue to explore our instructional community and arrive at some new possibilities for interconnecting our teaching and our students' learning, all for mutual success and enrichment.
