摘要:Project-based action learning (PBAL) is investigated to determine its effectiveness in graduate business education. Volunteer students currently enrolled in the Ohio University's MBA Without Boundaries (MBAWB) were interviewed to discuss PBAL and its impact on their skills and career progress. Additional facts were gathered from faculty members and existing literature describing MBAWB format, objectives, and content. The findings were distilled into one overarching theme and several related ones. The overarching theme, "graduate business schools using PBAL have a culture in which flexibility, student-centered, and collaboration drive institutional practice", reflects the pervasive student-centeredness of PBAL. The findings can serve as guideposts to graduate business schools seeking to meet the needs of high potential working individuals.
