Intersectionality is a term coined by Kimberle Crenshaw in 1989.
Crenshaw, a scholar of law, critical race theory, and Black
feminist legal theory, used intersectionality to explain the
experiences of Black women who-because of the intersection race,
gender, and class-are exposed to exponential and interlocking forms
of marginalization and oppression often rendering them invisible.
The second edition of Intersectionality & Higher Education:
Theory, Research & Praxis further documents and expands upon
Crenshaw's articulation of intersectionality within the context of
higher education. The text includes (a) theoretical and conceptual
chapters on intersectionality; (b) empirical research and
research-based chapters using intersectionality as a framework; and
(c) chapters focusing on intersectional practices, all within
higher education settings. The volume may prove beneficial for
graduate programs in ethnic studies, higher education, sociology,
student affairs, and women and gender studies and programs alike.
Experiential Learning presents an evolving form of education that
fundamentally involves "learning by doing" and having students
reflect on the work. The book discusses these recent developments
pertaining to the use of experiential learning in engineering
education. Covering a range of innovations in experiential
learning, the book explores development in laboratories, in-class
and problem-based learning, project work, and society-based
aspects, including indigenous elements in the curriculum. It
includes case studies and examples sourced from institutions around
the world. Focuses on recent and practical aspects of implementing
experiential learning to help improve engineering education. Offers
an examination of the undergraduate experience, which leads to
professional certification. Includes a chapter on lessons in other
professional education areas, such as medicine and health care,
business, and social work. A broad readership will find value in
this book, including faculty who teach undergraduate engineering
courses; engineering education researchers; industry partners that
provide co-op experience; and developers of training modules for
practicing engineers.

palliative care, mindfulness, sleep and cancer, social support and
cancer, cultural diversity, pediatric and adolescent oncology, and
