Many universities around the world are finding that the structures
and processes they have put in place to further their educational
missions are being tested by rapidly changing circumstances. These
changes involve new pedagogies, new course designs, new
technologies and updating of the physical campus; reflecting
diversifying student needs, growing student numbers, increasing
competition and more demanding stakeholder expectations. The
Education Ecology of Universities examines these issues, starting
with the challenges identified by university leaders who have
responsibility for education, digital and campus planning. Sharing
an analysis of in-depth interviews with more than 50 leaders, it
identifies a range of conceptual and procedural gaps that undermine
the full development and alignment of education, digital and campus
strategies. The second half of the book provides practical ideas
for taking a more holistic - indeed ecological - approach to
understanding and improving university learning environments.
Setting out a case for a new applied science of educational
ecology, this book offers foundational concepts and theoretical
perspectives, introducing methods for analysing and evaluating
teaching and learning ecosystems. It will be of interest to anyone
who wants better ways of understanding how local systems function
and can be improved. It is a must-read text for all leaders and
researchers in education, and indeed for anyone concerned with the
future of higher education.
