<p>This paper aims to clarify how the students participate to informal learning activity at the learning commons. We interviewed to 13 college students who joined informal learning activity which called project at a case university. As a result, the authors arrived at three conclusions: 1) participating the project linking with the learning environment in the learning commons, 2) encouraging participation with deep commitment through the activity, and 3) perceiving anxieties through the activity. We cannot generalize these conclusions to learning commons, because they were arrived from alternative case. However they will be an important knowledge in order to construct learning environment to push students' active learning activities at learning commons in the future.</p>
