A sense of community contributes to student engagement in an English100-Freshman Composition class in the Sellery Hall classroom.
"I think the sense of community in the residence halls is
really important for [students'] academic success. The University of Wisconsin
is a big school and I think it can be intimidating a lot of times, especially
for first-year students, so it's really nice to have the core group of people
who you live with and have one or two or three classes in common."
-Kate Vieira, English 100-Freshman Composition Instructor
In a study conducted in fall 2008, students in Residence Hall Class Sections (n=444) reported significantly greater experiences/outcomes than students enrolled in the same traditional classes on campus (n=380) on questions such as:
- Interacted with classmates outside of class
- Discussed something learned in class with other classmates outside of class
- Talked about personal lifestyles/customs with classmates
- Studied with classmates outside of class
- Had discussions with classmates whose personal values differ from yours
- Developed friendships with classmates
- Knew the names of my classmates
