“…These discussions include both the curriculum itself and student mastery of it (Brownell & Chung, 2001;Dehler, 1996;Hamilton, McFarland, & Mirchandani, 2000;Spee & Tompkins, 2001). Student mastery in these learning settings can involve the more traditional, faculty-centered assessment of student-demonstrated learning; student self-assessment (Ghorpade & Lackritz, 1998;Granello, 2000Granello, , 2001Hampton, 1993;Spee & Tompkins, 2001;Van Buskirk, Kruger, & Hazen, 1995;Wolverton, 1996); or possibly both. The area of student selfassessment (Brookhart, 2001) is an especially interesting development in the use of Bloom's taxonomy, because it points in the direction of double-loop learning (Argyris, 1977), student self-responsibility and self-management, and the student-centered classroom (Harvey, 1998).…”

This article discusses the use of Bloom's taxonomy as a metacognitive framework for the student-centered management class, or what contemporary education researchers call scaffolding. The taxonomy is a six-level classification system that uses observed student behavior to infer the level of cognitive achievement. The article surveys thinking within general education and within management education, which draws on Bloom's taxonomy, and then describes suggested uses of the taxonomy. Empirical evaluation of its effect on student achievement follows, as do thoughts about ways colleagues might use this tool to empower their management students as self-responsible learners in the classroom. . We thank Bill McKeachie for his advice and encouragement and, along with him, Ben Massey-academics whose contributions serve as reminders of the rich and useful worlds beyond our specialty areas. We also thank two anonymous reviewers for their constructive advice, support, and patience. Each author's contributions were equally important to this research.

“…Their philosophy states, “We’re here to learn together and you (the students) are as much a source of our learning as I (the teacher)” (p. 337). Addressing the specific task of exams, Buskirk, Kruger, and Hazen (1995) asked students to articulate exam questions that have grown out of their connection to and natural curiosity about the material. This approach “recontextualizes content in terms of student interests that are broader and deeper than the need to survive a course” (p. 459).…”

This article reviews andragogy as the philosophy resident in the broad arena of experience-based learning. Beneath the umbrella of experience-based learning lie the specific classroom orientations of student-centered learning, problem-based learning, and classrooms as organizations. These orientations contribute to the creation of autonomy-supportive classrooms that focus more fully on student experience as a means to greater learning. The exhaustive review of the literature on student experience in teaching environments is the foundation for claims to fuller integration of this approach and discussion that focuses on the student as the original reason for the existence of the classroom. The article closes with a call for more student-focused andragogy, its relevance for Millennial learners, and recommendations for educators.
