The RISE Learning Institute hosts an event, Making Learning Visible, every quarter to celebrate teaching and learning.

Since classes are mostly remote due to precautions around COVID-19, Making Learning Visible for Fall 2021 is entirely online. The RISE Learning Institute encourages all Bellevue College faculty, staff, and students to attend any of these public presentations, explore these online poster showcases, or celebrate along with other graduating students. View the student showcase below, and when you’re done, feel free to sign the Guest Book!

The Arts at Bellevue College

Check out the links below for details about and recordings of our various arts and music offerings at Bellevue College.

November 17-20

In 1927 on a farm in Indiana teenage Ruby struggles to turn her dream of the first all-electrical television system into a reality. The play then jumps forward to 1952 and a McCarthy-era New York TV studio where Ruby’s heirs fight over how her story should be told, The Ruby Sunrise charts the course of the phenomenon of television: from early idealism and sparks of genius, to promises fulfilled and compromises brokered. Groff’s play examines the mechanics of storytelling, of the ways in which truth can be compromised and histories revised.

Fall 2021 Virtual Showcases

Peruse the products, creations, and papers developed by Bellevue College students this quarter.

The Digital Media Arts students in this class partnered with Open Kitchen, a soup kitchen in Redmond, to apply their new design skills to creating infographics. Open Kitchen will utilize one or more of these in their communications with the community. Check out the creations below!

Basic Principles of Economics (Econ100) is a course intended for students as an introduction to economic issues and thinking. Humaira Jackson’s class is arranged in terms of eight guiding questions around aspects of economic justice. This past Fall quarter, students did a research project around housing insecurity. Their research involved interviews with local community organizations, data gathering as well using the BC library for peer-reviewed and popular articles on the subject of homelessness. Students final output was an infographic on what they learned, as well as to educate and advocate on the issue.

Students created a final reflection of what they learned this quarter through the creation of e-portfolios using Wakelet. In each of their portfolios, students include a reflection about their goals, at least four artifacts (from media, art, textbook, personal experiences) that reflect theories and ideas from our course, and a final reflection about what they have learned. Students were thoughtful and creative about applying course materials to their lived experiences and work goals.

Students consider different moral dilemmas in bioethics and use ethical theories to evaluate potential solutions to those moral dilemmas.

Students were asked to develop and present an infographic or brochure or podcast that displays an example of behaviors, practices, therapies that promote well-being, using principles from the biopsychosocial model. This project helps them describe how self and psychology applies to healthcare workplace settings. It also requires them to put a face to the practice by interviewing a real person(s) who regularly engages in the wellness practice.
