Short Description

This presentation will describe the process and encourage active discussion on designing, delivering, and evaluating an authentic learning project incorporated in an undergraduate capstone course. Students were led through an authentic learning experience to solve a performance improvement project for a “real client”. Students were empowered to work collaboratively with the client during the course and given the opportunity to showcase their analysis, design, critical thinking, problem solving, communication, collaboration, planning, and evaluation skills.
