This book provides a comprehensive discussion of the relationship
between higher education and working life from three different
perspectives: society, higher education and the world of work.
The purpose of the volume is twofold: first, to critically analyse
the relationship between higher education and working life, and
second, to offer material that helps university teachers develop
their teaching in a way that their students will be better prepared
for challenges of the continuously changing world.
The chapters discuss the interplay between education and work both
from the societal point of view and from the pedagogical
perspective. The book is divided in three sections. The first
section is concerned with higher education as a part of society,
giving a broader context for more pedagogically oriented chapters.
Section two focuses on transition from higher education to work and
the interaction of work and learning in higher education. The third
section focuses on changing workplace environments and the role of
universities in promoting work based learning. Practical examples
of work-related project learning and other practice oriented
teaching and learning methods are examined. Also, e-learning
solutions carried out through industry-university collaboration are
presented.
