We present a student-established course commitment process through which students jointly establish and commit to a shared purpose and the actions and ways of being and interacting with one another that will allow them to achieve this shared purpose. In addition, each student develops a personal commitment that will enhance his or her learning and development. During subsequent class meetings, students reflect on and discuss how well they are succeeding in fulfilling these commitments and coach one another on how they might improve. The students’ shared purpose provides a powerful framework through which to facilitate student-directed learning during the semester.
