Integrative Learning Assignments
There are many creative, interesting ways to foster integrative learning in the classroom. Faculty from a variety of disciplines at Montgomery College have provided the following examples of integrative learning assignments currently being used in courses across the College. Integrative learning assignments generally emphasize some combination of the following characteristics: Connections to experience, Connections across disciplines, Transfer of skills, Integrated Communication, and Reflection and Self-Assessment. Not every Integrative Learning assignment has to have all characteristics, although longer term projects may have more integrative elements.
