University at Buffalo Strategic Management students working in teams on a semester-long project.
Keuka College students in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam, used money from their course-long leadership project to purchase clothing, food, and bikes, for boys in a local orphanage.
This website investigates experiential learning methodology in higher education. In the Vietnam National University system and elsewhere, this may be called active learning. Active or experiential learning contrast with passive learning. Lectures generally are considered passive learning methods. Start your tour of the website on the Experiential Learning in Vietnam page and watch the presentation that I delivered to faculty and university administrators in Saigon. Watch a video that summarizes this process by clicking here.
See an example of Project-Based Learning by clicking here. Keuka College students in many of my courses in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, work on a five-week business project to apply what they are learning in their Operation Production Management course. This is one of several experiential learning methods used in my courses.
Your will find examples of the teaching that I have done since early 2012 in Vietnam, and since 2014 in Singapore. During this time, I have taught Business Leadership, International Business, Strategic Management, and Operations Production Management. These coursed are from Keuka College, an accredited four-year college in Penn Yan, New York, USA. The courses are taught to Vietnamese students in Da Nang, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam. The students receive a Bachelor of Science in Business Management degree from Keuka College after they complete this program. I also teach Strategic Management and Entrepreneurship & Small Business for the State University of New York University at Buffalo School of Management Bachelor of Science in Business Management program in Singapore, and on the Buffalo campus. I share examples of project-based experiential learning in this website and in my activities blog from the University at Buffalo program.
On the following pages, you will see examples of the projects my students have completed as they applied what they were learning in their lectures and from their textbooks to real-life businesses. Each Keuka College class formed a small business that operated for five weeks. These are three-credit courses taught over a seven week period with the same classroom hours as a regular 15-week semester. Therefore, these are intense course, and the students have a heave workload of lectures and studying, in addition to their projects. University at Buffalo School of Management students may run projects for six weeks in the summer session course, or for twelve weeks at the Singapore campus.
The students take these Keuka College courses within one of three universities. In Hanoi, in Da Nang, and in Saigon, where the Keuka College program is offered through the University of Science, Vietnam National University, Ho Chi MInh City.
