Analyzing and understanding the many changes that have taken place in learning and teaching in higher education over the last thirty years, this new book offers fresh perspectives and insights into where teaching and learning is, and might be moving in the future. Acknowledging the vital influence of Lewis Elton, leading researchers in the field examine and reflect on different aspects of changes to teaching. Focusing on five key areas, they: - outline changes in higher education and ways of thinking about teaching and learning that have occurred over the last thirty years - inspect the development of students' learning in higher education - examine the development of learning technologies in higher education - consider accreditation and scholarship of teaching and learning in higher education - develop a framework through which to understand and question the future development of learning and teaching in higher education.
"Changing Higher Education" offers staff, educational developers and those studying postgraduate qualifications in the field an insightful framework through which to understand and question current and future developments in learning and teaching in higher education.
