Active Learning

Active Learning

At Illinois College, our Ãå±±½ûµØ are achieving all of this and more — before graduation. 

Internships, student-faculty research, service-learning projects and professional practice in your field will prepare you with the skills to succeed in any 21st-century career. 

 

Active learning experiences have been proven by decades of research to have a strong connection to student learning and retention. These hands-on activities cultivate the traits that today’s employers most value: the abilities to read, write, speak and problem-solve effectively and the power to apply these skills in a professional setting.  

“The classroom knowledge I’ve gained was applicable to my trips, research, and internships, which, in
turn, led to new knowledge that was then enhanced in the classroom again.â€
