In Curriculum by Design: Innovation and the Liberal Arts Core (Fordham University Press, 2023), authors from Boston College describe how the University’s journey to a new Core Curriculum—aided by consultation with a firm specializing in design thinking—energized faculty, administrators, and students to view liberal arts education as an ongoing process of innovation. The book was edited by Carroll School of Management Powers Family Dean Andrew Boynton, Provost and Dean of Faculties David Quigley, and Rattigan Professor of English Mary Crane, director of BC’s Institute for the Liberal Arts, all of whom contributed to the volume. Many at BC who have been teaching the new courses in the revitalized curriculum wrote essays for Curriculum by Design. They are: Allison Adair, Lynne Anderson, Robert Bartlett, William Bole, Toby Bottorf, John Butler, Daniel Callahan, Hanne Eisenfeld, Thomas Epstein, Brian Gareau, Tara Gareau, Elizabeth Graver, Stacy Grooters, Régine Michelle Jean-Charles, Gregory Kalscheur, S.J., Elizabeth Kowaleski-Wallace, Prasannan Parthasarathi, Brian Robinette, Juliet Schor, Sylvia Sellers-García, Elizabeth H. Shlala, Min Hyoung Song, Jenna Tonn, Holly VandeWall and Dunwei Wang. The essays offer practical advice on the initial challenges of interdisciplinary and team teaching, problem- or project-based learning, intentional reflection, and other innovative structures and methods of teaching enacted for the first time.
