Birds of a Feather: TCTC Learning Commons and Clemson Libraries for Bridge Students: Spaces
Spaces -- TCTC Learning Commons
The architectural feel of the Learning Commons is open, inviting, and collaborative – this is where we learn in common. It’s a place where we exchange ideas, ask questions, and explore. The LC is your go-to space.
Collaborative & Tech-Enabled
The LC maintains a technology-rich infrastructure to support your study and learning. Open-access work stations are available throughout the space, as are printing and scanning services; collaboration rooms enable group study and teamwork; our maker space supports a variety of project tools, including 3D and poster printing; and our instructional classrooms are multifaceted, tech-enhanced environments. Even our collection of print books is housed in a one-of-kind bookbot – the only robotic book storage facility of its kind in the state.
Makerspace
The LC's Makerspace adds another dimension to student learning by providing a range of project supports, which might not be otherwise accessible to most students. These might include…
- Our large-format poster printer & laminator
- Our 3-D printers
- Our tactile learning tools
The LC likewise hosts several workshops each semester design to familiarize students with those resources and other tools for thinking and creating.
