Learning Reconsidered defines learning as a comprehensive, holistic, transformative activity that integrates academic learning and student development, processes that have often been considered separate, and even independent of each other.
“Our vision of learning assumes that distinctions among terms such as personal development, student development, and learning are meaningless, if not destructive,” and therefore proposes the “…integration of all domains of learning and involvement of all educators regardless of their campus role” (Baxter-Magolda, 1999, p. 39)
