The lack of academic integrity combined with the prevalence of
fraud and other forms of unethical behavior are problems that
higher education faces in both developing and developed countries,
at mass and elite universities, and at public and private
institutions. While academic misconduct is not new, massification,
internationalization, privatization, digitalization, and
commercialization have placed ethical challenges higher on the
agenda for many universities. Corruption in academia is
particularly unfortunate, not only because the high social regard
that universities have traditionally enjoyed, but also because
students-young people in critical formative years-spend a
significant amount of time in universities. How they experience
corruption while enrolled might influence their later personal and
professional behavior, the future of their country, and much more.
Further, the corruption of the research enterprise is especially
serious for the future of science. The contributors to Corruption
in Higher Education: Global Challenges and Responses bring a range
of perspectives to this critical topic.
In Educating for Social Justice: Field Notes from Rural
Communities, educators from across the United States offer their
experiences engaging in rural, place-based social justice
education. With education settings ranging from university campuses
in Georgia to small villages in New Mexico, each chapter details
the stories of teaching and learning within the often-overlooked
rural areas of the United States. Attempting to highlight the
experiences of rural educators, this text explores the triumphs,
challenges, and hopes of teachers who strive to implement justice
pedagogy in their rural settings. Contributors are: Carey E.

As diversity continues to increase in classrooms, teachers need to
be culturally aware and sensitive in order to ensure student
success. It is important to understand what best practices are
available to support this ever-increasing awareness of learning to
respect those who are different and to understand how this is key
to orchestrating a series of social interactions and social
contexts. Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning in Higher
Education is an essential scholarly reference source that provides
comprehensive research on culturally responsive teaching and the
impact of culture on teaching and contextualizes issues related to
cultural diversity and inequity in education. Featuring a broad
range of topics such as gender bias, STEM, and social media, the
goal of the book is to build transformative educators and
administrators equipped to prepare 21st century global citizens. It
is ideal for faculty, teachers, administrators, principals,
curriculum developers, course designers, professionals,
researchers, and students seeking to improve teaching methodologies
and faculty development.
