Publisher's Synopsis
- What does higher education learning and teaching enable students to do and to become?
- Which human capabilities are valued in higher education, and how do we identify them?
- How might the human capability approach lead to improved student learning, as well as to accomplished and ethical university teaching?
Higher Education Pedagogies offers illustrative narratives of capability, learning and pedagogy, drawing on student and lecturer voices to demonstrate how this multi-dimensional approach can be developed and applied in higher education. It suggests an ethical approach to higher education practice, and to teaching and learning policy development and evaluation. As such, the book is essential reading for students and scholars of higher education, as well as university lecturers, managers and policy-makers concerned with teaching and learning.
