Abstract
Accrediting organizations and employers’ expectations of skill development for college students’ learning and employment are challenging to educators. As a result, educators are increasingly using experiential learning pedagogy to improve learning (knowledge and skills). Two highly effective experiential methods are live-case study projects and internships. This study compares the learning outcomes of courses with live-case study projects for students who have had a prior internship experience and those who have not. The results find that prior internship experience does improve applied project learning outcomes.
