Description |
This study explores a management education model to help integrate sustainable development ideas into university curricula and programs. This pedagogical model emphasizes a community-based approach along with other proven methods for university-community collaborations and course-based social impact analysis. The Laudato Si’ encyclical’s notion of integral ecology, along with the need to create community-benefit academic programs, inspired the establishment of a partnership between the University of San Francisco’s Master of Nonprofit Administration program and the Foundation for Sustainability Development. This partnership experience expanded into development practicum courses and solidified into strategies for integrating experiential learning and organizational development through community-based analysis. The graduate level pedagogical models discussed here are relevant to other academic institutions and programs who would like to educate students with a community-centered approach.
Este estudio explora un modelo de gestión educativa para integrar las ideas de desarrollo sostenible en programas universitarios. Este modelo pedagógico tiene un enfoque comunitario junto con otras metodologías probadas para las colaboraciones entre la universidad y la comunidad y un análisis del impacto social basado en el curso. La noción que tiene la encíclica Laudato si’ de la ecología integral y la necesidad de crear programas académicos para el beneficio de la comunidad, inspiraron una colaboración entre el programa de Máster en Administración sin fines de lucro de la Universidad de San Francisco y la Foundation for Sustainability Development. Esta experiencia de colaboración se extendió a cursos de prácticas de desarrollo y se consolidó en estrategias para integrar la educación basada en la experiencia y el desarrollo organizacional a través de un análisis basado en la comunidad. Los modelos pedagógicos a nivel de posgrado estudiados aquí son relevantes para otras instituciones y programas académicos que quieren educar a los alumnos empleando un enfoque centrado en la comunidad. |
