In 2007, the American Association of Colleges and Universities
named learning communities a high-impact practice because of the
potential of these communities to provide coherence to and
ultimately improve undergraduate education. Institutional leaders
have demonstrated a commitment to providing LLCs, but they
currently do so primarily with anecdotal information to guide their
work. As a result, there is substantial variation in organizational
structure, collaboration, academic and social environments,
programmatic integration, student outcomes, and overall quality
related to LLC participation. To establish a stronger, more unified
basis for designing and delivering effective LLCs, the authors of
Living-Learning Communities that Work collaborated on the
development of a comprehensive empirical framework for achieving
the integrating potential of LLCs. This framework is designed to
help practitioners guide the design, delivery, and assessment of
LLCs. This book thoughtfully combines research and field-tested
practice to document the essential components for best practices in
living learning communities and presents them as a clear blueprint
– the LLC best practices model – for LLC design. Practitioners,
researchers, and institutional leaders can use the book as a guide
to more effectively allocate resources to create and sustain LLCs
and to realize the potential of these communities to improve
undergraduate education.
