What is the 3CE Road Map?

The 3CE Road Map is a planning resource for your four years of learning at Lewis & Clark College.  Learning is commonly defined as a process that brings together cognitive, emotional, and environmental influences and experiences for acquiring, enhancing, or making changes in one’s knowledge, skills, values, and world views (Illeris, 2004; Ormrod, 1995). 

Integrative Learning is connecting skills and knowledge from multiple sources and experiences; applying skills and practices in various settings; utilizing diverse and even contradictory points of view; and, understanding issues and positions contextually.  It is an opportunity for you to pull together your intellectual, emotional, and environmental influences and experiences as you develop your own world view.  Ultimately, that world view along with your skills and values is your guiding compass as you engage in your role as a citizen of the world.  The process of integrative learning is in your hands.

As a member of Lewis & Clark College you are a part of a living/learning community which provides you with the necessary experiences to create who you want to be as a citizen and what impact you would like to leave – here, now, and into the foreseeable future.   In other words, this community hopes to instill in you the ability and desire to become a lifelong learner while you also influence the community.  Now is the time to take ownership of your education by determining what you want to learn and how you will contribute to the learning community. 

Every experience is an opportunity to gain insights about yourself, your community, and your world.  The Center for Career and Community Engagement (3CE) has developed the Road Map to equip you with the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities for a lifetime of learning.

Helpful Guidelines for using the 3CE Road Map

Take Ownership of your L&C Experience!

We recommend following the Road Map in sequential order, however, use it as a guideline to design your own plan of action.  Invest in your education by seeking a broad range of experiences, which build on your interests and values; strengthen your skills and competencies; and expand your understanding of the world around you.

Experience, Reflect, Integrate!

Grounded in the liberal arts tradition, the 3CE Road Map expands on academics through experiential learning. Thoughtful reflections are integral to experience-
based learning. Consider using the next four years to test your hypotheses about yourself. Each experience informs the next as you integrate your interests, skills, and passions.

Plan!

Ask any Senior.  Four years go by fast.  Therefore, it is important that you put a plan into place to make the most of your time.  Writing it down helps you map it out and make adjustments as your interests and experiences develop.  Each year provides opportunities for you to craft your own goals.  Share your goals with your network of faculty, mentors, peers and staff to keep you on track and motivated!

Know Your Resources!

Across campus there are a wealth of resources to help you set and achieve your goals.  Take advantage of all the campus has to offer by learning about the services and programs designed to enhance and support your college experience.
