Description: "Innovations in teaching and learning methods in higher education are being introduced at a time of rapid institutional change. Traditional lectures are being replaced by more student-centered and project-based methods, often involving the use of information and communication technology. Innovating in Higher Education is based on in-depth qualitative research in fifteen UK universities, and tells the stories of those who have been involved in such changes. It will be of interest to policy-makers, managers and university teachers who wish to bring about innovation in teaching and learning in higher education."--Jacket.
