Dr. Sheridan-Rabideau’s current project, Doing Good: Meaningful
educational reform for the 21st Century (in progress) challenges the
academy to rethink traditional pedagogies while cultivating the creative and
imaginative powers that reside at the heart of social entrepreneurship.
Contending that training in the arts of critique-the standard fare of
university-level curricula-has failed to prepare students to engage
meaningfully with contemporary challenges, Sheridan-Rabideau offers an
alternate view of how education might be transformed to provide
undergraduates with experientially-based encounters with the creative side
of problem-solving.
