WGU provides a performative learning environment—one in which learners are also practitioners and apply what they are studying to their own vocations and broader lives as well as the lives of those with whom they work.
The intellectual foundations of our transformational programs synthesize the best theories and methodologies related to the enhancement of human potential—ancient Greek philosophy to modern-day existential philosophy; developmental, Adlerian, humanistic and positive psychology; educational theories from Dewey to Vygotsky to Mezirow; current research in neuroscience, neuroeconomics, and behavioral economics; and other behavioral sciences.
Learners are challenged to understand many aspects of human communication and behavior and to then apply those insights and practices in their vocations.
