摘要：In this expository essay, four faculty members co-reflect on the pedagogy used within one first-year course, Introduction to Community Studies (COMS 1100) at Cape Breton University (CBU). We discuss the responsibility of facilitating five process-based pedagogical approaches. These complex and interrelated processes include: i) self -directed learning, ii) reflexive intra-personal learning, iii) group/inter-personal development, iv) experiential learning, and v) community-based and/or service learning. We describe and give examples of how these approaches help students learn how to learn, function, and grow respectfully with one another and with community.
