Overview of ECE and Information for Faculty
Welcome to Lansing Community College's Department of Extension and Community
Education (ECE). We offer credit and non-credit classes for all ages,
located in many different communities in convenient facilities. We encourage
you to explore our website and our offerings, and invite you to contact us
if there is any way we can help you make your lifelong learning journey a
successful one. Jean Morciglio, Executive Director
Diverse Student Populations
Students who take classes at those Learning Locations may be adult learners,
dual-enrolled high school students, new students, guest students and in
other categories. Many have work and family commitments, as well as a strong
commitment to their local communities. Each school district represents a
community with its own distinct educational needs. In many cases, a Learning
Location class is the first contact a student has at Lansing Community
College.
Faculty
Faculty members are identified, supervised and evaluated by the academic
department offering a course. Faculty who work at Learning Locations need a
commitment to serve adult learners and an awareness of the diverse needs of
the community. Often faculty members live in the community in which they
teach.
Academic Outcomes
The same level of academic excellence is expected for students at Learning
Locations as is expected on campus. The Extension and Community Education
Office provides instructional support services such as scheduling,
registration, audiovisual equipment, classroom materials, and information in
order to support this objective.
Student Services
Learning Location students may be provided student support services,
especially if this is their first contact with an educational institution.
Initial support services include assessment, counseling, advising,
registration, and referrals to on-campus services. Students are encouraged
to begin their connection with Lansing Community College with an assessment
and advising appointment at a nearby Learning Center.
Evaluations
Learning Locations are evaluated systematically through annual student
surveys, semester-by-semester faculty evaluations and periodic faculty and
Community Education surveys to assure quality standards and to stimulate
program improvement. Learning Centers that have student aides posted will be
asked to evaluate the student aide as well.
