Young Adult Development In Hospitality Management Schools Which Offer Craft Based Learning, John C. Niser
Young Adult Development In Hospitality Management Schools Which Offer Craft Based Learning, John C. Niser
John C. Niser
This research set out to examine the role of craft based education in hospitality management schools from a developmental perceptive. The first exploratory study found that craft based learning could not be isolated from the total learning environment in which students were developing adult thinking skills. The second investigation examined students from the same institution in the light of young adult development literature. Relativistic thinking was identified as a general area of agreement in the literature but the underpinning structural unity of this thinking skill could possibly be challenged. In the first school I conducted my study, interviewees did not …

Introduced is the ‘BUCKS’ Planning Model for facilitating city economic development initiatives.

Antioch University Dissertations & Theses
This dissertation will explore leadership as a mytho-poetic transformational journey toward self-knowledge, authenticity, and ultimately wisdom; the power to make meaning and give something back to the world in which we live; and the necessity of transformation. I view leadership as a transformative process and a transformational responsibility. As leaders we must undergo our own transformation in order to lead change on a larger scale. The dissertation will be both philosophical and theoretical, exploring how the threads of the hero’s journey, transformation, wisdom, and leadership intertwine. It will also examine the role of education in this process. Education does not …

The greatest improved social behaviors for participants were in helping others who are having trouble; increased ability to initiate positive interactions; and, …
