When pedagogical strategies attend to students’ “prior,” students can practice transforming their knowledge for their current learning situation and for future personal and professional goals. Drawing on student and instructor stories, this keynote explores pedagogical strategies for embracing students’ prior experiences, building on them within our courses, and preparing students to transfer their integrated knowledge forward as they continue their journeys.
