Course
Structure
A. Groups.
In this unit, students will meet and work in four types of group
formats:
• Cohort.
The first of these group formats is the cohort, which consists of all
students enrolled in NCLC 140.
• Seminar.
The second group format used in this unit is the seminar. Each
seminar will be composed of approximately 20 students. Generally,
seminars will meet on Monday through Thursday mornings (see the
day-by-day schedule for more details).
• Project
group. The cohort will be divided into five project groups of
approximately 20 students. These groups are an integral part of your
experience in this unit as they are the foundation of your group
projects. As indicated on your daily schedule, several project group
work sessions are built into the class schedule; however, groups will
need to schedule additional working sessions for completing
assignments.
• Afternoon
Phases. We will also occasionally meet in afternoon phases in
order to ensure that you are provided with the resources and guidance
needed to succeed with the various projects in this unit (again, see
the day-by-day schedule for more details).
B.

day-by-day schedule outlines each of the weeks for this unit. The

receive a separate handout describing where to go for various
afternoon rotations.
