This article describes the circumstances, process, and decisions which led to Purdue University's definition of experiential education. The motivation for creating the definition came from a realization that though experiential education was a common practice at the university, it was not visible to nor well understood by university…

Volunteer programs, especially those for docents, may often be overlooked as learning opportunities rather than as a strategy for program delivery. Thinking about docents first as learners themselves, and then as partners in creating learning experiences for visitors, can create a meaningful shift in the relationship. By integrating concepts from…

In this article, we adopt assemblage as "methodology" and as a way to foreground the vitality and relational agency of other species as they encounter humans. Research as assemblage is a process of becoming with others, and we experienced that ontological process during three environmental excursions as we became entangled in…

The introduction of the concept of impactful learning experiences and the designation of a list of 11 high-impact practices (HIPs) by Kuh and colleagues has spurred the adoption of many of these practices as student success tools (Kuh 2008; Kuh, O'Donnell, and Schneider 2017). Further evaluation of why these practices are particularly impactful…

Strategies to improve executive function that rely on external structures to help students successfully plan and complete tasks at school will not achieve the same outcome as would develop if these structures were combined with authentic experiences that require careful planning by individuals for themselves and their community.

Evaluating a design studio course is a complex issue due to its practice-based, rich, and vague nature. This is an attempt to uncover this complex issue from students' viewpoints as they are the owners of learning processes. Based on a student evaluation template, we particularly focused on nine dimensions of a design studio course, which are…

The concept of the undercommons offers a lens for complicating the discourse of conviviality in education. In this paper, the authors draw on learning experiences opened through black feminisms, decoloniality and anti-coloniality, and new materialisms in an experimental graduate course. Presenting stories drawn from a shared educational space,…

So much emphasis is placed these days on measuring the performance of pupils that it is difficult to imagine the social space of the classroom being used for any other purpose.
