Stone, Garrett A.; Powell, Gwynn M.; McGuire, Francis A. – Schole: A Journal of Leisure Studies and Recreation Education, 2022
The last day of a course is often viewed as awkward, abrupt, and even antithetical to a course's aims. More often than not, prime opportunities for reflection, reinforcement, reconciliation, and closure are typically subsumed to administrative tasks and end-of-course exhaustion. This paper summarizes the scant end-of-course literature, reviews the…

Erica Malone; Michelle Pine – HAPS Educator, 2025
Gross anatomy courses utilize cadaver dissection to teach identification, topography, and spatial relationships of organs. The deconstructive nature of dissection, however, focuses students' attention on the "big picture", followed by a discovery of details. This approach may be useful for many, however some students may prefer to…
