awareness beyond the confines of
a single specialty and through
such a continuing pattern of
learning contribute to the team
teaching effort. The student must
also cooperate with his fellow
learners while still developing an
ability to take more responsibility
for his own work (luring his
college years so that his program
of studies matches his own
academic interests and ultimate
career goals."
At Evergreen this process is
called "learning how to learn" -
development of the skill required
to solve complex problems, often
within sets of unfamiliar
circumstances such as those
demanded in the "real world".
Thus, the faculty member is as
much of a learning guide as a
learned dispenser of information,
recognizing that no one has all the
answers for every problem all the
time. The quest for answers to
human problems is shared by all
members of the learning
community.
Evergreen's faculty planning
team, which has been hard at
work since its arrival last
September, consists of 18 persons
from such fields as English,
sociology, chemistry,
mathematics, political science,
biology, history, philosophy,
psychology, art and physics. In
terms of experience, these faculty
represent 38 different fields - or
academic disciplines, as higher
educators like to put it. Their
Other interests and
accomplishments include
COmputer programming,
film-making, ecology, music,
drama, mountain climbing and
others.
It is the rule rather than the
arning exception when one sees a
and physicist and an artist at
to Evergreen working together on a
program of studies that seeks to
pull together not only these
Patterns seemingly unrelated fields but
also psychology and
the anthropology. It's really not

Or a biologist by training who
leads a group which includes an
ecologist, political scientist, artist,
architect and sociologist as they
tackle the problem of
environmental design. Or a
mathematics teacher coordinating
the activities of a group which
also includes the fields of
literature, sociology, drama and
philosophy - all focused on the
medium of dramatic performance•
Or several English professors
taking the lead in the
development of contracted
studies in which students, as
individuals or in groups, may sign
up with college sponsors for
research projects, internships,
work-and-study programs or
development of specific skills
through short courses, workshops
and self-learning packages.
Evergreen's faculty members
will continue to pursue
scholarship in their own fields of
expertise and will contribute
heavily in those areas. However,
they will also pursue expanded
interests beyond single specialities
to assure continuous regeneration
and vitality in academic programs.
The idea of faculty
cooperative learning is as evident
during the current planning
period as it will be when students
arrive at Evergreen. For example,
take the recent "Self-Paced
Learning Week", a five-day period
in which faculty and other staff
got together to first discuss and
then put into practice some of the
concepts behind such
instructional modes as
mini-courses, workshops,
computer-aided instruction and
packaged learning.
The purpose of this kind of
self-paced, individualized
instructional system is to allow a
student to organize his time and
talent toward the mastery of a
skill or difficult concept. These
programs can be part of a

It was a wet, wild and
wonderful weekend for more than
60 scouts from the Mason County
District May 14, 15 and 16. This
year's Camporee was held on
Bingham Creek about 2 miles east
of Lake Nahwatzel, the same site
of last year's Camporee.
Troops 103, 110, 112, 155
and 160 checked in between 6:30
and 7:30 p.m. Friday evening
accompanied by nine
scoutmasters. Members of
Explorer Post 711 inspected the
troops and led them to their
campsites on the bank of the
creek where they made camp.
Following a rousing campfire they
retired for the night.
Saturday, the boys competed
as patrols in lashing, compass
work, fire building, rope toss and
a cross country trailing course laid
out by the Explorer Scouts.
About dinner time the rain came
Scoutmasters also stayed the
night.
All competition scheduled for
Sunday was canceled and the
points earned for the competition ~+
were totalled. Points were also -,
earned for scout skills such as
meals, camp area equipment and
scout spirit.
Cougar patrol of 160, earned
592 points for first place, Flaming
Arrow patrol of l l 2, 360 points
for second and Coyote patrol of
103,285 points for third.

opportunities for development of

programs will be offered to
students in a library Learning
Resources Center when the
college opens and later in other
facilities such as the science and
seminar buildings.
During the intensive
"Self-Paced Learning Week",
faculty and staff discussed the
different kinds of programs that
can be designed, equipment and
materials to be used, and
evaluation techniques to assure
that objectives and results match.
The week also included workshop
sessions, during which faculty
members actually produced
program items such as film loops,
slides, audio and video tapes,
computer packages and graphms
materials.
This combined program
involving both discussion and
production enabled, the f~cuJty to
share concepts and convert theory
into practice. For many, this was
a brand new learning experience
and a most valuable one. Faculty,
aided by Evergreen's library
media staff and students, will be
producing their own packaged
learning programs after the
college opens• Budgetary
constraints preclude purchase of a
full range of learning packages•
And, it is important that material
be tailored to specific Evergreen
programs.

self-paced instructional programs

work. Next come all the operating

"Self-Paced Learning Week" is
but one example Of the
cooperative planning and faculty
learning that has characterized the
design of all Evergreen programs.
The entire faculty, working as a
team, labored many weeks to
grind out details of the
Coordinated Studies program.
Coordinated Studies involve small
learning communities - usually

"ln short," says Vice
President and Provost Barry:
"Every effort is being made to
assure that Evergreen becomes a
true learning community that
reflects the nature of the real
world, where none of the
problems man faces are simple
and where none of the parts
become, in their own conception,
more important than the whole."
