Out-of-Class Learning Contracts
"Adult students have many opportunities to acquire learning through professional, civic, and personal experiences. The out-of-class learning contract is an educational tool that allows students to design courses to meet individual academic needs and competencies. The contract is a written agreement between the student, the faculty contract director, and the EXD Program. Learning contracts may be applied to any area of the curriculum and are normally designed to allow learning outside the traditional classroom environment." - From the External Degree Program's website.
