Prospects of Change in Higher Education - Towards New Qualities & Relevance; Festschrift for Matthias Wesseler (Paperback)

This anthology offers comprehensive insight into topical issues of change in international higher education. Confronted with the challenge of increasing quality and relevance, the individual articles deal with aspects of teaching and learning, curriculum development, organization, and research in the university context. Many of them refer to concrete projects implemented in universities of Latin America, Africa, and Asia. They were developed in the University Staff Development Programme and run by the Institute for Socio-cultural Studies, University of Kassel (Germany). The anthology is dedicated to Matthias Wesseler, an active pioneer in change processes in international higher education. The contributors are colleagues in the field of international higher education, many of whom have known him as a teacher and mentor.
