Description
In this forum, we are discussing the idea of developing students as whole people as a way to prepare them for the future. In an increasingly complex and interconnected world, higher education is evolving beyond traditional academic development to nurture autonomous individuals who think critically, act ethically, and engage meaningfully with their communities. Presentations will explore how holistic, whole-student approaches promote agency, self-direction, and personal growth. Presenters will share practices, research, and strategies for co-creating learning environments that empower students to take ownership of their education and thrive as autonomous individuals in a complex, globalized world.
