"Many congratulations to the Centre for Educational Research and Development at the University of Lincoln for producing an upbeat book about the future of higher education which is scholarly, original, exciting and practical. It is an important contribution to the debate about what higher education should and could be like." Dr. Monica McLean, Reader and Assistant Professor in Higher Education, University of Nottingham

- Dr Monica McLean,

"‘Learning landscapes' amid ‘the stretched academy': with ideas such as these, this volume brings fresh thinking to our sense as to the future of higher education. Adroitly edited, the essays here show that there are spaces available to the university that can enable it to go forward in progressive ways. The final chapter skilfully adds to the coherence of the whole enterprise. This is a volume to which I shall be returning." Professor Ron Barnett, Professor Emeritus, Institute of Education, University of London

- Professor Ron Barnett,

"The strength of this book of essays lies in its cohesiveness of theme and approach, in particular in its ability to trace back the genesis of particular issues. I found all chapters to be informative and thought provoking as they look into different nooks and crannies of Higher Education and relate them to core values and policies."Edinburgh Napier University's Teaching Fellows Journal

'The introduction [is] particularly useful as it situates the values and conflicts of Higher Education policy in terms of academic interests and values, and socio-economic remits.' 'The strength of this book of essays lies in its cohesiveness of theme and approach, in particular in its ability to trace back the genesis of particular issues' Teaching Fellows Journal, June- September 2010  

"The Future of Higher Education" coursebook comprehensively explores policy, pedagogy and the student experience. "The Future of Higher Education" explores policy, pedagogy and the student experience at a conceptual level, enabling university staff to place their own work within a wider theoretical framework and to develop their own understandings of some of the key controversies that surround teaching and learning in higher education.The book is divided into three parts: part 1 explores key policies that have shaped higher education since the late twentieth century, and traces the impact that these policies have had on the extent and nature of higher education provision; part 2 explores how these emerging policies, and the need for higher education institutions to respond to them, have produced a radical reevaluation of what higher education is and how it might best be delivered at an institutional level; and, part 3 gives consideration to pedagogy and the student experience in contemporary higher education. "The Future of Higher Education" will be invaluable to all university staff, especially those following the PGCertHE and other programmes within institutional CPD frameworks. It will also be of interest to researchers in this field.
