Abstract

This study aims to examine the three dimensions that should exist in a learning community, namely Student Cohesiveness, Integration, and Task Orientation. From the purpose of this research, this study seeks to justify the value of a learning environment that should exist in the learning community at the Faculty of Economics, Universitas Negeri Medan. Respondents of this study were undergraduate students who were involved in the learning community at the faculty. By using simple random sampling, this study collected 105. Data were collected using a 5-scale Likert questionnaire. The collected data is then tabulated and analyzed using the second-order factor analysis. The results indicate that three dimensions are equally important to developing a conducive learning environment in the student community. This study recommends higher education to manage non-formal learning for certainly supporting the achievement of learning outcomes. Therefore, the head of the study program needs to govern the student community and advise them better direction. The direction should be fitted to the learning agenda of the study program.
