Motivated by a concern for the societal issues and global challenges facing us, we recognize that the current generation of students will need to be agentic citizens able to act to become authentic change-makers. If students are to become critically reflective active citizens, equipped for life in its broadest sense, then teaching must engage them with disciplinary knowledge and link this to authentic practices to make learning meaningful.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeaningful learning is defined as linking knowledge-intensive processes of learning to the creation of value for others outside the university. This embodies students' cognitive heads, conative hands, and affective hearts allowing them to become authentic change-makers. It makes the learning process holistic, embedded in the individual, and socially connected, without losing the connection to knowledge content. When a meaning-oriented format supports content and when content is enhanced through an outward-oriented format, students' cognitive, affective, and conative domains are activated in a powerful interplay to trigger deep feelings of meaningfulness. A meaningful learning approach ensures that students become participative learners, able to reflect on their own values and combine disciplinary knowledge in collaboration with others to tackle some of today's most pressing societal challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSarah Robinson\u003c\/b\u003e is an educational anthropologist and Associate Professor at the Centre for Educational Development at Aarhus University, Denmark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Lackéus\u003c\/b\u003e is a researcher in entrepreneurial education at Entrepreneurship and Strategy, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWesley Shumar \u003c\/b\u003eis an anthropologist and professor in the Department of Communication and an affiliated faculty in the School of Education at Drexel University, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01 April 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781350453395\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e192\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51223602397324,"sku":"9781350453395","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781350453395","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
