The digital transformation of higher education has the same
reputation as the higher education sector itself: rigid and
reluctant to change. Covid-19 has radically changed this rigidity,
with thousands of Universities compelled to go 100 percent online
in just a few days. Threatened by edtech start-ups, big tech
corporations increasingly interested in academia, as well as
venture capitalists attracted by the sector's high profit margins,
Universities need to change their way of doing business to stay in
business. Higher Education at the Crossroads of Disruption: The
University of the 21st Century looks at the various areas of higher
education that will likely undergo radical changes. Learning and
teaching approaches will increasingly move into the digital sphere;
advances in artificial intelligence as well as (big) data
availability, will change the way academia works. This books
examines how teaching formats will vary, and how curricula and
course content will evolve. Higher education will most likely focus
on skills development, with a stronger emphasis on inter- and
multidisciplinary study content, and a steady turn toward society's
well-being and sustainability. This is essential reading for those
holding a leadership position in higher education, researchers with
a focus on higher education, and to anyone interested in the
evolution and future of higher education.
