TGQF'S INVESTMENT IN A SINGLE COMMUNITY COLLEGE FACULTY MEMBER REACHES THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS OVER THE COURSE OF A CAREER.TGQF CONTINUES TO OFFER ITS ONLINE CURRICULUM REDESIGN WORKSHOPS, FOCUSED ON HELPING FACULTY MEMBERS INCORPORATE THE DISCUSSION-BASED STUDY OF TRANSFORMATIVE TEXTS INTO GENERAL EDUCATION COURSES THEY TEACH AT COMMUNITY COLLEGES. ABOUT 50 COMMUNITY COLLEGE FACULTY MEMBERS HAVE COMPLETED TGQF ONLINE WORKSHOPS DURING THIS PERIOD, IMPACTING ABOUT 8,000 STUDENTS. IN EACH WORKSHOP, 10 COMMUNITY COLLEGE FACULTY MEMBERS COLLABORATE WITH TWO EXPERIENCED FACULTY LEADERS TO DEVELOP DISCUSSION-BASED PEDAGOGY, STUDENT-CENTERED STUDY QUESTIONS, ASSIGNMENTS, AND A REDESIGNED SYLLABUS FOR A GENERAL EDUCATION COURSE THEY TEACH AT THEIR HOME INSTITUTION. UPON COMPLETION OF THE WORKSHOP, FACULTY PARTICIPANTS INCORPORATE THE DISCUSSION-BASED STUDY OF ONE OR MORE OF THE TEXTS INTO THE CURRICULUM OF A GENERAL EDUCATION COURSE THEY TEACH. THE REDESIGNED COURSES HAVE BEEN HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL IN ENHANCING STUDENT ENGAGEMENT, STIMULATING INTELLECTUAL CURIOSITY, ENCOURAGING DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES, AND CREATING AN INCLUSIVE ENVIRONMENT FOR FREE EXPRESSION.

THE PROGRAM HAS REACHED 47 FACULTY AND OVER 5,000 STUDENTS. BEFORE PARTICIPATING, 71% OF FACULTY REPORTED LITTLE TO NO EXPERIENCE TEACHING THESE TEXTS THROUGH DISCUSSION; AFTERWARD, 100% PLANNED TO INTEGRATE MORE. AMONG STUDENTS, 83% REPORTED MORE DISCUSSION OPPORTUNITIES THAN IN OTHER COURSES, 78% FELT FREE TO EXPLORE UNPOPULAR VIEWPOINTS, AND 87% CAME TO SEE THE CONTINUED RELEVANCE OF THE CONSTITUTION AND FOUNDING DOCUMENTS. THESE RESULTS REFLECT EXACTLY THE KIND OF CIVIC LEARNING THAT NATIONAL REPORTS IDENTIFY AS MOST NEEDED AND MOST UNDERFUNDED AT COMMUNITY COLLEGES: NOT CIVICS AS ROTE MEMORIZATION OF GOVERNMENT STRUCTURES, BUT THE DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS' CAPACITY TO ENGAGE WITH FOUNDATIONAL TEXTS, DELIBERATE ACROSS DIFFERENCE, AND APPLY FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES TO CONTEMPORARY ISSUES AND CHALLENGES.
