Abstract
As we enter into the 21C, it is important to reassess the knowledge and skills that are necessary for individual consumers and consumer professionals to be able to function efficiently in the rapidly changing society, and also to develop teaching tools fit to enhance the teaming of such knowledge and skills. The Purpose of this study is three-folds: 1) to identify key competencies necessary in the 21C consumer education, especially in higher education institutions, 2) to suggest 'experiential learning' as an ideal pedagogical tool for consumer education in the 21C century, and 3) to provide an example from an undergraduate classroom in the U.S. that applies 'service learning' as a teaching tool in a consumer studies curriculum. Discussions about the potentials for expanding this learning strategy are also provided.
