Description
Designing for Learning: Creating Campus Environments for Student Success is a comprehensive introduction to campus environmental theory and practice.

The second edition of this book offers new coverage of key topics, including universal design, learning communities, multicultural environments, online environments, social networking, and safety.

With updated vignettes, case scenarios, and institutional examples, you can apply theory to practice and test your understanding with end-of-chapter reflection questions. This book introduces you to the many design factors that impact student success, helping you develop a solid strategy for implementing changes that can make a difference on your campus.
