Open Learning Lab (OLL)

Open learning pedagogies plus student and faculty websites are a powerful and popular tool for achieving LCC's strategic commitments such as engaged learning, student success, equity, OER (Open Educational Resources), and inclusion. Look for workshops or stop in for information and support on how the Open Learning Lab can benefit you and your students!
