Advanced Internship: A High-Impact, Low-Cost, Super-Capstone Course.

In an earlier issue of this journal, the authors described a capstone course, Internship, that both “caps” the undergraduate experience and functions as a “bridge” to the world beyond college. Here, they describe a sequel to that course, Advanced Internship, which both extends and enhances the “capping” and “bridging” experiences. The bridging function of the course is especially profound. The principles on which Advanced Internship is based apply to a variety of academic courses and disciplines. Impact of the course on students’ learning and confidence is high; costs for implementing the course are low. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
