LEARNING IN ACTION
Courtney
Cochran,
Vice President of the Miami Student Body
In my involvement with Associated Student Government, I have stumbled upon one of the most enlightening and challenging experiences of my Miami career. It has forced me to work alongside student leaders different from myself, it has tested my ability to improvise and analyze and find the best solution, it has opened to doors and allowed me to form personal relationships with a variety of administrators, and generally enhanced my Miami experience. I can't think of any previous time I have had so much responsibility paired with so much freedom. I think it's really changed me, and made me grow as a student and a person, and I'm so grateful for that.

To help you develop your own approach to engaged learning, this section of the website is purposefully interactive.
At key places, we invite you to pause to reflect on ways in which the information resonates with your experiences and applies to your specific field/area. These reflection questions are designed to help guide you on your own journey from an instructional paradigm of education, which focuses on providing knowledge, to a discovery paradigm of education in which individuals engage in inquiry to seek and discover knowledge.
