Collegiate Expectation Chrystal Denmark Porter, Ph.D., Ed.S. The purpose of the study was to describe the expectations that millennial generation students had regarding their collegiate experiences, focusing on student responses about student- faculty interaction and course learning (Porter, 2007). -Continuation of research about teaching excellence within the discipline of Sport Management

Edutainment Using traditional methods to design a course and deliver course content through traditional formats may not, many cases, be the best method instructors should use if they are truly interested in the students learning process (Oblinger, 2003). The modern system of higher education includes salient features: an open and flexible system, direct and easy access to every learner, a broad based and futuristic visionary stream of learning, edutainment and infotainment and student-centered learning, that is more emphasis on insight and knowledge than mere information collection, new knowledge with a personal touch and need and utility-oriented learning (Popli, 2005).
