Yellowdig enables students to learn together, grow together, and thrive together. No matter if Yellowdig is used within a course setting or beyond, Yellowdig communities are a safe space for students to get support from their peers and instructors, dig into what’s piquing their interests, and form relationships that give them a sense of belonging. In a course setting, students have the rare opportunity to authentically converse about course-related topics drawing connections between and across their learnings and into their lived experiences. Instructors often report the joy they feel from seeing their students’ genuine curiosity and interest in course content, as well as the heartwarming interactions of students supporting and encouraging each other. Together, students and instructors create impactful communities that have the power to transform not only a student’s educational experience but their lives. Yellowdig simply provides the necessary pedagogy and proven platform to make it happen. Yellowdig - learn together. To learn more visit yellowdig.co.
