There has been an unprecedented global surge in the numbers of
young people going to university over the last few years and, for a
multitude of different reasons, higher education worldwide is in a
state of flux. To cope effectively, the universities of today will
need to be more responsive to the needs of growing numbers of
students and better attuned to their requirements. Many complex
factors are driving strategic change and influencing institutional
decision-making processes, but what is clear is that students are
becoming increasingly fundamental to supporting change processes at
both national and local levels, and that institutions are working
in collaboration with students in new ways in order to understand
and improve the learning environment. Within this context, 'student
engagement' is the catch-phrase of the moment. This book highlights
some of the national and global agendas and issues, from emerging
sectors, to the meaning of student engagement for different
stakeholders. It provides a backdrop to themes of student
engagement as well as examples of innovative and inspiring means of
engaging with students in practice, empowering them to take
responsibility within decision-making processes and enabling them
to lead and deliver change.
