Capstones have been a part of higher education curriculum for over
two centuries, with the goal of integrating student learning to cap
off their undergraduate experience. In practice, capstones are most
often delivered as a course or include a significant project that
addresses a problem or contributes new knowledge. This edited
collection draws on multi-year, multi-institutional, and
mixed-methods studies to inform the development of best practices
for cultivating capstones at a variety of higher education
institutions. The book is divided into three parts: Part One offers
typographies of capstones, illustrating the diversity of
experiences included in this high-impact practice while also
identifying essential characteristics that contribute to
high-quality culminating experiences for students. Part Two shares
specific culminating experiences with examples from multiple
institutions and strategies for adapting them for readers' own
campus contexts. Part Three offers research-informed strategies for
professional development to support implementation of high-quality
student learning experiences across a variety of campus contexts.
Cultivating Capstones is an essential resource for faculty who
teach or direct disciplinary or interdisciplinary capstone
experiences, as well as for faculty developers and administrators
seeking ways to offer high-quality, high-impact learning
experiences for diverse student populations. Visit the Cultivating
Capstones Companion Page, hosted by the Center for Engaged
Learning.
