Student reflection in experiential education is recognized as a valuable tool in learning and development (Moon, 2006).

Administration Publications and Research

This paper provides background discussion and information to begin the process of considering a more explicit definition of scholarship at the University in the coming decade and broadly discusses several of the issues that should be reviewed.

This could lead to increased faculty involvement in the various and multiple forms of learning, improved faculty satisfaction and retention, and an improved …
