Description
This
latest volume in the Learning in Higher Education series, New Innovations in
Teaching and Learning in Higher Education
presents primary examples of innovative teaching and learning practices
in higher education. The authors - scholars of teaching and learning from
universities across the globe - all share the ambition to develop educational
provisions to become much more learning-centred. Such learning-centredness is
key to quality enhancement of contemporary higher education and may be achieved
with a variety of methods. The chapters document innovative teaching and
learning practices within six areas:
Engaging Students through Practice - Student-Centred e-Learning -
Technology for Learning - Simulation - Effective Transformation - Curriculum
Innovations
The book is truly
international, containing contributions from Australia, Denmark, England, Hong
Kong, Switzerland, Qatar, Scotland, South Africa, Tasmania, Vietnam, and the
USA. Although the educational contexts are very different across these
countries, there appears to be a striking similarity in the approach to
innovative teaching and learning - a similarity which also runs through the six
areas of the book. Whether scholars of teaching and learning engage in
simulations, e-learning, transformation or use of modern technologies, they
work to empower students.
