Opis

This book discusses essential topics on understanding the development and changes in higher educational systems in Asia, and explores governance, quality assurance, stakeholder engagement, and innovation in the post-massified era from an Asian perspective. While each of the three sections has a particular focus area, the common thread across all chapters is the local responses and relevance to global discourse. In each chapter, authors highlight the ways in which concerns were raised, compromises made, and challenges overcome. This book serves as a valuable resource for various stakeholders, including university administrators, admissions counselors, higher education professionals, and managers working with international programs, students in higher education programs, policy makers, scholars interested in higher education and policies, various knowledge industries, and Quality Assurance (QA) agencies. Readers learn from the challenges discussed and be inspired to design and implement innovative initiatives and strategies. Given the diversity of partnerships and innovation in research, teaching, and learning, there is no one way or how to list of steps for effective higher education systems. Rather, readers glean insights from various scholars who recognize the value of collaborating across oceans and borders.
