The explosive emergence of net-based learning in higher education
brings with it new possibilities and constraints in teaching and
learning environments.This edited collection considers how the
concept of Academic Bildung - a term suggesting a personal
educational process beyond actual educational learning - can be
applied to net-based higher education. The book is drawing on
Scandinavian research to address the topic from both a theoretical
and practical standpoint.Chapters explore the facilitation of
online courses and argue how and why universities should involve
dimensions of Academic Bildung on both a strategic and
technological pedagogical content level. The book is structured in
three parts: Part I frames the current state of net-based learning
and introduces Bildung as a concept; Part II contains a set of four
case studies in Norway, Sweden and Denmark, also including a fifth
study that looks at Scandinavian approaches to teaching and
learning in comparison with data from the USA, the UK, Australia
and Canada; Part III provides a synthesis of theories and cases to
examine whether a Scandinavian orientation can be discerned.
Contributions suggest that in order to address one of the
fundamental functions of higher education, the ability to produce
new knowledge, the Academic Bildung of the students has to be in
focus. Grounded in theoretical and empirical discussion, this book
will appeal to researchers and academics in the field of higher
education as well as personnel who work with teaching and learning
with technology, and academics interested in the question of
Academic Bildung.
