Service Dominant Logic (SDL) proposes value creation as a process based on service, the success of which ultimately depends on employees' service orientation. Given that universities are the nest of future employees, and the latest World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report highlights skills such as empathy and active listening, leadership and…

CLOVER by 4-H is an online learning platform that creates a space for youth to explore interactive learning experiences across a range of 4-H program areas. This article provides an overview of a pilot conducted around the implementation of CLOVER by 4-H to provide positive youth-development experiences in 4-H programming. As a result of the…

Far too often, students are left on the periphery when creating, designing, and implementing community service initiatives. This article provides a framework to position students as co-creators of service initiatives rather than just participants using a case study of the President's Leadership Fellows Program at University of Tampa.

This article provides a framework and strategies to position students as co-creators of service initiatives rather than just participants and outlines the myriad benefits of this approach for advancing impact. Scholarship on student engagement in community service often focuses on the what and why of program design while bypassing the…

In-service primary school teachers' professional development and, more specifically, their teacher agency, are analyzed regarding the integration of mathematical education and sustainability. To achieve this, based on semi-structured interviews, several questions involving Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) and links between mathematics…

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current state of graduate level business analytics education in the United States. The goal of this research is twofold. The first goal is to understand how higher education institutions are addressing the growing demand for analysts and data-savvy managers in the job market. To achieve this aim, the…

Engaging first-year students from the first moment of arrival is crucial to support their transition to higher education and facilitate their learning experiences and learning outcomes. Orientation activities offer first-year students important transitional support during their first period at higher education. As students sometimes consider…

The purpose of the study was to explore the experiences of ten pre-service physical education teachers as they designed and implemented a community-based physical activity program through the Adventure Education model. Drawing on the occupational socialization theory as a theoretical framework, data were collected through field notes, document…

Despite advances in the inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities in society, there are still negative attitudes toward them. For this reason, it is considered necessary to carry out interventions aimed at changing attitudes toward this group and the characteristics of such interventions should be analysed. To this end, a review of the…

We describe the contours of one leadership preparation partnership between a university and urban high school district, to demonstrate the affordances that have allowed the partnership to process and weather challenges. Critically, we describe the actual work of collaboration, presenting one extended example of learning-in-action. As such, the…

Feedback is a key factor for learning success and has therefore been widely studied in higher education. As feedback is a highly contextualized practice serving various learner needs, researchers have utilized a plethora of feedback designs in their intervention studies. This diversity in feedback conceptualizations and pedagogical designs often…

We describe one Academic Dean's experience of redesigning academic warning (AW) processes with first-year engineering students in a New Zealand University, after learning, developing, and applying the concepts and techniques of solution-focused (SF) brief therapy. These AW processes were changed from a deficit and failure orientation to a focus on…

There are considerable data documenting the importance of early experiences for healthy human development. Though widely accepted amongst mental health clinicians, developmental researchers and early childhood policymakers, this information is not well known by much of the public. We describe a specialized program designed for established and…

Background: As more universities seek to offer international experiences for engineering students, it is important to design such programs to effectively support student learning abroad. Previous research on study abroad has focused on a limited number of outcomes and therefore failed to consider the diversity of experiences students may have in…

Medical education may lack experiential training on authentic community engagement (CE). Employing a human-centered design approach with medical faculty and students to identify goals, opportunities, needs, and barriers to implementing CE research, we developed an Experiential Community Engagement Learning Series (EXCELS) pilot program. EXCELS…
