This book aims to provide insight into the complexities
confronting higher education today and to highlight tangible
opportunities that exist to address such issues. We are in a
constant state of flux and higher education needs to respond in
more proactive, intentional and innovative ways to remain a
relevant cornerstone to society and culture. The editors begin by
asking how our collective reality might change if the complexity
and uncertainty surrounding us were embraced and leveraged to serve
the learner and society as a whole. They invite the reader to
explore collaborative approaches to individualized learning
pathways, networked learning and a reimagined ecosystem of
academia. The chapters are arranged to inform the reader seeking
knowledge on how to 1) reshape and redefine the 21st century
university, with its evolving role in these transformative times;
2) design and implement courses that address the changing needs of
the university and the non-traditional student; and 3) utilize
research on innovative strategies with processes that promote
organizational learning. The chapters profile the fluid nature of
learning as it evolves in higher education and the workplace, often
with a blurred line separating the two environments. Exciting ideas
related to heutagogy, problem-based learning, innovative
constructivist strategies, authentic learning and self-regulated
learning all converge in this volume.
