Abstract

This chapter overviews the purpose of this book and is designed to help the readers leave a legacy, but only by adapting, changing, and designing policies, procedures, and classroom experiences that serve our students will that legacy come to fruition. Institutions with strong visions, missions, and legacies create traditions but also leave room for flexibility to work in this dynamic and changing global environment. In the introductory chapter, the authors seek to define the term post-traditional learner, as well as the interdisciplinary research approach the authors utilize, and share the rationale for the book.
