Dr. James Sellmann, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences at the University of Guam has published a research article entitled, “A Way of Learning: Bridging Ancient Chinese Philosophy of Education with Contemporary Learning Assessment and Learning Organizations,” in the December 2015 issue of the Taiwan Journal of East Asian Studies.

Sellmann’s research explores the effectiveness of the high-stakes atmosphere of education in the imperial dynastic systems of China and East Asia and how it often led to successful learning outcomes. Sellmann argues that China had its own form of “liberal education,” and contemporary American liberal education could benefit from analyzing and incorporating similar forms of learning and education.
