College Made Whole: Integrative Learning for a Divided World

This excerpt from Chris Gallagher's College Made Whole argues that higher education needs integration, not unbundling or rebundling. Gallagher critiques the current system's fragmented structure, advocating for a holistic approach that connects disciplines, classroom learning, and real-world experiences. He emphasizes the importance of integrative learning and the role of faculty in fostering it, showcasing examples of innovative institutions that successfully integrate their curriculum and co-curriculum to better serve students. The book also addresses issues of equity and access, arguing that integrated institutions can best prepare students for the complexities of the 21st century. Finally, the author examines the rise of alternative credentials, suggesting that they should complement, not replace, traditional degrees.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/College-Made-Whole-Integrative-Learning/dp/1421432625?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=661ff778091bfc0f62d09e3ff3ab267b&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by Podcai Studio:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
