Cerritos College Academic Habits of Minds
Cerritos College FIN Progress Report, Summer 2009
The Cerritos College inquiry project will combine two complementary collaborations to develop a deeper understanding about how developmental learners acquire the academic habits of mind needed to succeed in college. Too often, students at risk remain on the margins of the academic community and this project will investigate ways of moving them to the center. The Cerritos College team has a hunch that by improving meta-cognitive functioning and by understanding identity development, students can be helped to adopt a “learner identity,” acquire academic habits of mind, and improve their learning.
