Abstract
Socially engaged students cross all disciplines. Today’s complex and rapidly changing environment poses new challenges for practitioners, students, and educators working within and alongside post-secondary institutions. This research explores how business and social work students interpret and perceive the world’s greatest challenges. Eighty-four students participated in the mixed methods study wherein a workshop was delivered to two social innovation and two social work classes. The workshops provided a forum for students to explore their perspectives on the world’s greatest challenges individually and as part of a group. Differences and similarities are reported regarding student perspectives of the world in which they live. The results reinforce a change in student mindset requiring significant shifts in the development and delivery of social impact curriculum and pedagogy related to creating shared value, social innovation, and changemaking.
