Abstract
Our chapter is a collaboration of three members of the Inside-Out community who, among us, have taken the roles of teacher, student, researcher, study participant, and civic project contributor. We focus here on transitions in the learning processes experienced by students in an Inside-Out course in which we all participated. Specifically, we describe shifts in students’ assessments of their closeness to other students as learners, academic self-efficacy, and perceptions of the course as a transformational experience.
