12. One-third of the Project Renaissance sections are linked to course-specific subjects, such as anthropology. Students enrolled in these "linked" sections attend one (rather than two) Project Renaissance core course, as well as an additional class together in their particular field of study. The study did not include these linked sections because of their different courses of study. All students enrolled in the subject-specific "linked" curriculum received in-class instruction.
