John Zubizarreta, Editor; Victoria M. Bryan, Editor – Online Submission, 2025
Joy, freedom, and benefit--the reasons we are at our colleges and universities. The joy of learning, the freedom to grow, and the benefit of education are all basic human rights, or at least they ought to be. We believe that both honors and faculty development affirm, support, and sustain those rights. We married in 2000, at the beginnings of our…

Sugerman, Deborah A.; Doherty, Kathryn L.; Garvey, Daniel E.; Gass, Michael A. – 2000
An outdoor education leader's job is quite complex--the planning, logistics, preparation, teaching, watching, being aware of safety can be overwhelming. Pulling it all together so that participants can express what they learned from the experience is sometimes overlooked. The reflective process is integral to the success of learning, yet it takes…

Chickering, Arthur W. – 1977
Today's experiential learning rests on long and worthy traditions. But the university's emphasis on analytic, reflective, and theoretical studies and its neglect of concrete experiences, practical applications, and active experimentation have been equally long-standing. The learning cycle of concrete experience, observation and reflection,…
