Abstract: | We investigated curricular conditions and educational practices that influenced the development of life-long learning orientations
among 405 undergraduate students. Results suggest that growth in life-long learning orientations was facilitated by instruction
that included opportunities for reflection, active learning, and perspective-taking and that provided students with opportunities
for positively interacting with diverse peers. Negative diverse peer interactions were found to stifle development. Implications
for researchers and practitioners are discussed. |
