Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine how social interactions influenced the effects of Learning Communities (LCs) on college students' academic success. Previous research has shown that LC students are more socially integrated and perform better academically than non-LC students (Stassen, 2003). An ANCOVA and logistic regression on 946 first-year students found no group differences in GPA and that LC enrollment was not predictive of retention. The analyses controlled for demographic and entering academic characteristics. Results of analyzing interview transcripts revealed that students from both groups report the influence of social interactions on academic success in remarkably similar ways. Most interestingly, non-LC students often create social and study groups similar to LCs. Implications of the results and direction for future research are discussed.
