In two different occasions in the twentieth century John Dewey and Maxine Greene stressed the point that educators should attend to 'what the known demands of us'. Following this dictum, from a critical perspective and with a constructive pedagogical spirit, in this paper we portray a new paradigm for values education that addresses the major…

This chapter describes debriefing or reflective learning practices that help ensure that real-life experiences of potential value will (in Dewey's words) "live fruitfully and creatively in subsequent experiences."

In this systematic review, a series of didactic proposals and experiences that have been developed over recent years in formal education are presented with the common purpose of ensuring that students with special educational needs learn science. Initially, only 54 publications on the topic were identified, which underlines the scarce research…

This article explores how pilgrimage shapes the ways in which Korean American youth and young adults develop their sense of intersectional identities by visiting their motherland. The coauthors begin by highlighting the limitation of Korean American churches' emphasis on text-based education, suggesting how pilgrimage as a spiritual practice could…

A qualitatively oriented mixed methods case study was conducted to investigate the effects of incorporating LEGO robotics into a 7th-grade mathematics curriculum. Using the lenses of Social Constructivist Theory and the Five Stages of Technology Integration, this research focused on the development of proportional reasoning skills. The data show…

Many undergraduate educational experiences in biomedical design lack clinical immersion-based needs finding training for students. Convinced of the merits of this type of training for undergraduates, but unable to offer a quarter-long course due to faculty and administrative constraints, we developed an accelerated block-plan course, during which…

This paper explores the role of exemplarity in education through a conceptualisation of two different dimensions of exemplarity in educational practice. (1) Pedagogical exemplarity, which relates to the pedagogical and ethical dimension of educational practice. In other words, this dimension explores the educational moments when…

This paper presents a novel design for an upper-level undergraduate statistics course structured around data rather than methods. The course is designed around curated datasets to reflect real-world data science practice and engages students in experiential and peer learning using the data science competition platform Kaggle. Peer learning is…

This research develops an effective methodology for a core business introductory information systems course to teach business process concepts and the role of information systems in business processes.

The first macromarketing seminar held in 1976 represented a first attempt to "hack the system" of business schools to bring a societal focus to the teaching of marketing. This effort resulted eventually in macromarketing becoming a major field of the marketing discipline. Today, forces outside the business school are pointing business…

This paper describes an experiential learning project for students enrolled in a Marketing Channels course. Students conducted small scale research studies involving manufacturers and their channel members by investigating behavior related to electronic marketing channels and pricing practices. Students developed hypotheses based on their channel…

Background: Experiential learning approaches applied in classrooms are often disconnected from theory and loosely connected in classroom practice. Given critiques of experiential learning, there is a significant need for process learning theory with a practice-driven model. Scholars have only begun to explore the enhanced learning that often…

We describe a "Day of Giving" university fundraising event that can be used to introduce data visualization to undergraduate students. The project involves integrating data sources, creating a Tableau data model, and designing a heat map that can be embedded into a front-end website. Our activity provides opportunities to discuss various…

This paper details an experiential influencer marketing project in which students acted as micro-influencers to develop and promote their personal brands using social media accounts and blogs. Students reflected on their strategic decisions and performance in six weekly Slack posts. The pre-launch preparation, along with students' successes,…
