This book examines current trends in higher education and the
Scholarship of Teaching and Learning. It introduces readers to
pedagogical strategies that instructors worldwide are using to
overcome some of the challenges they face in higher education. To
maximize their students' learning, this work argues that
institutions are compelled to innovate their policies and
instructors must be collaborative and creative in their practices
in response to students' growing demands, needs, challenges to
their learning, and the shifting terrain of a rapidly globalizing
world. The text explores the idiosyncrasies and challenges that
drive innovation across particular cultures, disciplines and
institutions. It suggests that the responses to these drivers offer
some universal and compatible lessons that not only optimize
teaching and learning, but also transgress institutional, cultural,
and disciplinary boundaries in higher education. The contributors
to this collection work in the United States, the United Kingdom,
Africa, Asia, Australia, Scandinavia and the Middle East. They
represent a broad range of disciplines, fields and institutional
types. They teach in varied contexts, durations, delivery modes,
and formats, including online, study abroad, blended, accelerated,
condensed, intensive and mortar-and-brick settings. Their higher
education students are equally as diverse, in age, cultural
backgrounds and needs, but willingly lend their voices and
experiences to their instructors' study of teaching and learning in
their particular contexts. This book harnesses the rich diversities
and range our contributors represent and shares the results of
their expertise, research, and assessments of some of the most
creative and effective ways to improve student learning in the face
of stagnant practices, limited resources, and other deficiencies
that instructors and students face in higher education.
