Abstract

Innovation and Integration in the Bakery is an experiential learning course. This course has been designed to explore food based business models and the impact they potentially have on developing local communities. Students will explore these ideas while also learning introductory baking skills in order to more fully grasp the technical side of food production. Classes are structured in the following format: instruction, application, and reflection. Classes will utilize case studies in the Omaha area showcasing a variety of for-profit, non-profit, and socially driven business models. Using the bakery as one model, students will then be required to learn and execute baking production. Finally, through the reading and reflection of Fr. Greg Boyle’s Tattoos on the Heart, students must reflect on the necessary components of compassion, forgiveness, kinship, and advocacy that our Jesuit tradition urges businesses to explore.
