More details
- Mission
- Coker College's unique Round Table teaching style emphasizes the active role of the learner in the educational process. This approach is tailored to benefit from the college's small class size and it reflects the college's commitment to treat each student as an individual. Many classes actually take place at a round table and even in regular classes the constant interaction between professors and students is a hallmark of Coker's learning experience. The frequent occasions when students engage each other in classroom discussion also provide peer support in the learning process. This approach to higher education, Coker feels, produces graduates who possess well-developed communication and leadership skills.
