Ken Levinson’s Profile

How can we con­tribute to stu­dent suc­cess–suc­cess not only aca­d­e­mic, but also emo­tional and so­cial–dur­ing their time at BMCC? Stu­dents’ first year ex­pe­ri­ence is es­pe­cially im­por­tant in de­vel­op­ing and nour­ish­ing their sense of pur­pose and be­long­ing, their love of learn­ing, ac­cess to ser­vices and re­sources, as well as stu­dents’ ex­plo­ration of ca­reer paths and cit­i­zen­ship. This is the goal of FYE-em­bed­ded courses, and here is a re­source site with rel­e­vant ma­te­ri­als for fac­ulty. We wel­come con­tri­bu­tions.

How can we contribute to student success–success not only academic, but also emotional and social–during their time at BMCC? Students’ first year experience is especially important in developing and nourishing their sense of purpose and belonging, their love of learning, access to services and resources, as well as students’ exploration of career paths and citizenship. This is the goal of FYE-embedded courses, and here is a resource site with relevant materials for faculty. We welcome contributions.
