What is a First Year
Experience Course?
You may be asking: why is
this important?
What is a First Year
Experience Course?
Principles of First Year Experience
Community should be
established equally to
promoted a sense of
belonging
Focus of class should
have students reflect
and not just give them
information
Needs to be enjoyable
and fun for the students
But do not just take my
word for it, here
is an example from one of
the best first year
experience courses in the
country…
Background Information
● Introduced in 1972 as an
experimental course
after riots had taken
place due to the Vietnam
War.
● The initial goal of the
course was to do the
following:
● Build trust, and
create
communications
between all
personnel that
worked at the
University
USC’s First
Year
Experience: UNI
101
USC’s First Year Experience: UNI 101
Awards and Recognition
Now…
Lets take a look at
Lander’s Results
At the end of the semester, we send
the students enrolled in LINK 101 a
Survey
So what is
LINK 101?
LINK 101 provides
academic and co-
curricular experiences
that will establish a
firm foundation upon
which students can build
the skills, knowledge,
and values essential for
success in higher
education and the world
beyond.
Instructor Role
● Create and fun and welcoming
environment for the students
● Meet with Peer Leader once a
week before class, to
discuss class
● Check in with students
weekly
● Help plan activities for
Peer Leader to do in class
● Grade Assignments
● Create and fun and welcoming
environment for the students
● Meet with Instructor once a
week before class, to
discuss class
● Plan weekly activities to do
in class with Instructor
● Show up to every class, on
time
● Aid instructor in whatever
they ask of you
Peer Leader Role
Some Don'ts and
Exceptions
Please make sure you are present
for EVERY class. If you are not able
to attend, reach out to your Peer
Leader to lead the class or another
instructor in the same cluster.
Thank You For
Your Help!
