Using Lasallian Principles to Educate Students for the Future

KEYWORDS: Innovation, change, creativity, flexibility, critical thinking, interdisciplinary

Abstract: Cognizant of the need to improve the way innovation is taught, we develop a unique approach, which builds upon three values of our college’s Lasallian tradition: together by association, vigilance and attention to students, and a focus on practical knowledge. We have tested our exercises with a traditional undergraduate population and we are currently working with students who are facing a challenging educational environment in Bethlehem University. Part of a college’s service mission is to unite students across disciplines, schools, and countries and to teach them how to manage their careers so that their technical and interpersonal skills can transcend borders.
