San Francisco Bay University is innovating their core curriculum with Agility Praxis Pathways, or APP reflecting their commitment to a new paradigm of higher education.  What excites me about the APP Model is how it reframes the age-old challenge of bridging theory and practice in higher education. While many institutions talk about innovation, San Francisco Bay University has created a framework that actually delivers on the promise of adaptive, student-centered learning – no surprise given their reputation in this area. Ray does a deep-dive into this model with SFBU Provost & Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Bradley Fuster.
