The year 2020 presented conflicts in higher education, including a
global pandemic, racial protests, cries for Black Lives Matter
following the deaths of Black women and men by police, education
moved online to virtual classrooms, and the U.S. economy struggling
as millions of Americans were furloughed or worked remotely and
ordered everything curbside; all of this compounded by an election
year. This book is a compilation of perspectives shared from
students enrolled in a graduate course on diversity and social
justice in higher education who found community in sharing their
personal and professional experiences associated with identity and
allyship development, socialization, activism, institutionalized
racism, academic traditions, advising, to implications for change
in higher education policies, processes, and practice.
This book is intended to inform and educate college/university
faculty about how to design, implement and evaluate their own PBL
program in the undergraduate and graduate educational learning
environment. The objective of this 'how to' book is to provide
college/university faculty with ways to establish, use and evaluate
a successful problem based undergraduate or graduate program. There
is an increase in businesses and schools that are using some form
of problem-based learning on a daily basis. By educating
undergraduate and graduate students with this service delivery
model they will be better prepared to enter the work force and
perhaps increase their marketability. This can be used as
professional development to learn how to use PBL in undergraduate
and graduate courses. Also, college faculty can model to their
students how to use PBL in their own classrooms in the future.
