COMMENTS FROM PARTICIPANTS
Our team came with an idea and left with a plan ready
to be put into action. Northeastern Faculty provided expertise and facilitation.
The Institute has been a productive experience, and I know I have developed
professionally and my university will benefit!
– Jill, University of Texas at Arlington
The Institute was so very helpful in providing a context
that allowed us to see that our questions and confusions were not unique
to us and in giving us the space and the support of a wonderful facilitator,
all of which made it possible for us to reach clarity and concensus and
to leave with definite steps towards success.
– Susan, Baldwin-Wallace College
The Institute provided the opportunity to share questions
and answers facing experiential learning today. The result was a dynamic
synergy among participants.
– Brian, George Washington University
One of the most useful professional development events
I have attended. The length of the program, the content, the balance of
plenaries, workshops and team projects, all came together in a very effective
outcome. Many thanks!
– John, Camosun College
The team-based interactive nature of the institute
is a great way to explore the issues and find solutions.
– Heinz, University of South Africa
The time allowed to work on plans in a concentrated,
focused manner was extremely helpful. We got more done in four days than
we did in eleven months of on-campus meetings.
– Kirk, Franklin College
The Institute experience provided a great blend of
focused team opportunities with learning opportunities from colleagues
at other schools and workshop facilitators.
– Lynda, Robert Morris University
The Martha’s Vineyard Institute provided our
institution the opportunity to clarify and operationalize our plan to
incorporate experiential learning in a more integrated way into our campus
culture. The facilitators were excellent mentors and the presenters focused
on issues most relevant to our needs.
– Ron, Purdue University Calumet
