This study examines the quality of teaching in higher education. It highlights and analyzes the fundamental issues which influence and underlie the quality of teaching in higher education. In particular, it focuses on students' and tutors' perceived needs, requirements and practices. It also addresses the question of whether, and in what ways, it is possible for teaching in higher education to meet the requirements and to satisfy the needs and preferences of both students and tutors.
