Developmental Classes
Developmental courses provide an excellent opportunity to build the skills and knowledge essential for success in college. Placement tests, along with other measures, help the college and students know what math, writing, and reading courses are needed for students to build this foundation of essential skills. Students are required to take developmental courses when their placement scores fall within a specific range and when other measures confirm their placement. Advisors will help students understand their placement. Developmental courses are important, and we encourage students and their families to see placement in a developmental course as a useful and positive opportunity to support a successful college experience.

Common Student Learning Outcomes (CSLOs)
SJC is a learning college, where students are full partners in their education. As part of this philosophy, it is important that all students are prepared for the world of work or to transfer to a four-year college or university. In order to fulfill this goal, the College has adopted five Common Student Learning Outcomes that will be used throughout the institution to measure learning success. These outcomes are:
Broad and Specialized Learning
Students will actively and independently acquire, apply, and adapt skills and knowledge with an awareness of global contexts.
Critical Thinking
Students will think analytically and creatively to explore ideas, make connections, draw conclusions and solve problems.
Cultural and Civic Engagement
Students will act purposefully, reflectively, and ethically in diverse and complex environments.
Effective Communication
Students will exchange ideas and information with clarity in multiple contexts.
Integrating Technologies
Students will demonstrate fluency in the application and use of technologies, information, or resources in multiple contexts.
Course Specific Learning Outcomes
Students will find expected course-specific student learning outcomes on course syllabi and course guides. These outcomes help students reach course, program, and college common learning expectations.
Program Specific Learning Outcomes
Each degree program is guided by program-specific student learning outcomes. These are available on program web-sites.
General Education Student Learning Outcomes
The purpose of general education is for students to acquire knowledge and develop skills to understand and interact in a complex, diverse and changing world as contributing and responsible members of society. The general education student learning outcomes articulate with the expected outcomes of the Higher Education Common Core of the State of New Mexico.
Learning College Principles
San Juan College incorporates the Learning College Principles as an underlying theme to the advancement of learning. These principles were first developed by Terry O’Banion in his book Launching a Learning Centered College.
Our learning college is based on six key principles:
- The learning college creates substantive change in individual learners.
- The learning college engages learners as full partners in the learning process, with learners assuming primary responsibility for their own choices.
- The learning college creates and offers as many options for learning as possible.
- The learning college assists learners to form and participate in collaborative learning activities.
- The learning college defines the roles of learning facilitators by the needs of the learners.
- The learning college and its learning facilitators succeed only when improved and expanded learning can be documented for its learners.
