Work in educational psychology has long recognized the importance of existing knowledge for the process of meaningful learning. Moreover, many in both the academic and popular press have noted the benefits of embedding the humanities and traditional liberal arts in management education. However, students may struggle to connect concepts from these areas with their prior knowledge base.
