Could we help them document this crazy time?&nbsp;<\/em> We did it. We created a public website called <a href=\"https:\/\/livetogether.openlcc.net\/\">LiveTogether-LearnTogether<\/a>.&nbsp; It\u2019s a site that\u2019s open and viewable by the public. It\u2019s designed to make it easy for any LCC student, faculty, or staff member \u2013 the community that makes up the OpenLCC scholarly commons \u2013 to post a story or an image that tells some aspect of their pandemic experience.&nbsp; It was a rush, but so far we\u2019ve got over 120 stories and images collected.&nbsp; Some will make you smile. Some will make you laugh. Some will make you think. And some may even make you cry.<\/p>\n<p>Learning results from making connections. But before we learn, we have to be part of a safe community. Many critics of online learning think community can only come from the in-person, \u201con-campus experience\u201d. I beg to differ. Community is possible remote.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Location:<\/strong> Lansing, MI, USA<br \/>\n<strong>More Information:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/econproph.com\/2020\/06\/29\/livetogether-learntogether\/\">Live Together &#8211; Learn Together &#8211; the backstory<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learning is about connections&nbsp; and community as much as anything.&nbsp; In late March as we were all making the \u201cpivot\u201d, a couple of faculty floated an idea:&nbsp;Could we&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":498,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,1],"tags":[76,91,136,137,126],"class_list":["post-499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cccoer","category-general","tag-community","tag-community-colleges","tag-lansing","tag-michigan","tag-stories"],"splot_meta":{"author":"Jim Luke, Lansing Community College (@econproph)","license":"c","source":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=499"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/499\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":502,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/499\/revisions\/502"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/498"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/splot.ca\/extraordinary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
