Moving debates about ICT and higher education beyond a simple focus
on e-learning, this book takes into consideration the provision of
post-secondary education as a whole. Discussing what is meant by
e-business, why e-business approaches are relevant to universities
and colleges, and the key issues this raises for post-secondary
education, this book: examines emerging technologies and provides
examples of what an e-institution for education might look like;
explores what can be learnt from e-business in re-defining the
relationships between enterprises and their users, and in
developing processes to improve services and competitive advantage;
and considers how to improve administrative efficiency, implement
faster access and response to information, enhance skills and
knowledge development, and improve the student experience. It
examines technological innovation and integration, leadership
styles, risk assessment and cost-benefit type analyses,
re-designing existing organisational frameworks, techniques for
overcoming barriers to change and successfully implementing change,
and the types of technologies required for an e-integrated
educational provision.In a highly competitive educational
marketplace, institutions need to react to, and embrace, new
technologies to provide rich and competitive learning environments
for the students of tomorrow. The discussion and guidance in this
book is essential reading for all leaders, managers and heads of
e-learning in higher and further education.

Critical thinking is a major and enduring aspect of higher
education and the development of criticality in students has long
been a core aim. However, understandings of criticality are
conceptually and empirically unclear. The book combines a well
developed conceptual discussion of the nature of criticality
appropriate for the twenty-first century, the extent to which it is
attainable by arts and social science undergraduates, and the paths
by which it is developed during students' higher education
experiences. Drawing upon empirical accounts and case studies of
teaching and learning in different disciplines, this book
critically analyses higher education curriculum and policy
documentation to explore higher educational processes, encouraging
a re-evaluation of practice and educational values, and enabling
the development of curricula which incorporate systematic attention
to the development of student criticality. This book proposes a
rounded conceptual vision of criticality in higher education for
the twenty-first century.
