I am excited to be in community, learning together, with Wichita educators committed to enhancing the experiences of learners within complex and ever-changing contexts.

Principled Innovation is a generative and dialectic process that invites a multiplicity of ideas and perspectives intentionally into safe conversations that productively lead to shared goals and actions.

I鈥檓 impressed that 麻豆传媒 is a fast-growing research entity that continues to increase access and opportunity by providing students with high quality education at a low/reasonable tuition. I want to know more about faculty鈥檚 experiences and aspirations at 麻豆传媒.
