New Directions in the Economics of Higher Education provides an
overview of the vibrant and growing field of the economics of
higher education. The text assesses the full breadth of the topic,
including the returns to higher education, college attendance and
completion, higher education financing, educational production, and
the market for higher education. This comprehensive literature
review puts the collected papers into the perspective of
developments in the wider literature on the economics of higher
education over the past decade.
The diversity and Inclusion movement in corporations and higher
education has mostly fallen short of its most authentic goals. This
is because it relies upon the dominant worldview that created and
creates the problems it attempts to address. Rediscovering and
applying our original Indigenous worldview offers a remedy that can
bring forth a deeper and broader respect for diversity, and a
different way to understand and honor it. This book offers a
transformative learning opportunity for preserving diverse
environments at every level, one that may be a matter of human
survival.

Ndangwa Noyoo was Head of the Department of Social Development at UCT from 2018-2020.
This book exposes corruption and malpractices at UCT, which the author witnessed during his tenure as HoD there, before he was ousted by a group of lecturers in his department. The former had been aided and abetted by senior administrators at the faculty level.
It is a personal account that is evidence-based, as the claims the author makes in the book are documented in various reports, communications and eye-witness accounts that span a period of five and a half years.
We are moving toward a future in which digital practices are
becoming more ubiquitous. Also, there is evidence to suggest that
innovative digital practices are changing the face of 21st-century
learning environments. Critical to 21st-century teaching and
learning success is continued emphasis on learner preferences,
shaped by innovative digital technology-driven learning
environments alongside teacher awareness, knowledge, and
preparedness to deliver high-impact instruction using active
learning pedagogies. Thus, the purposeful and selective use of
digital learning tools in higher education and the incorporation of
appropriate active learning pedagogies are pivotal to enhancing and
supporting meaningful student learning. The Handbook of Research on
Innovative Digital Practices and Globalization in Higher Education
explores innovative digital practices to enhance academic
performance for digital learners and prepare qualified graduates
who are competent to work in an increasingly global digital
workplace. Global competence has become an essential part of higher
education and professional development. As such, it is the
responsibility of higher education institutions to prepare students
with the knowledge, skills, and competencies required to compete in
the digital and global market. Covering topics such as design
thinking, international students, and digital teaching innovation,
this major reference work is an essential resource for pre-service
and in-service teachers, educational technologists, instructional
designers, faculty, administrators, librarians, researchers, and
academicians.
