Opis

Towards a Pedagogy of Higher Education illustrates how international policy shifts, primarily the Bologna-process, have affected debates around both the purpose and organisation of higher education at different levels.

Recenzje

"Gunnlaugur Magnússon and Johannes Rytzler combine the multiple perspectives of curriculum theory, policy analyses and pedagogical philosophy and explore an education-oriented theory of teaching, presenting a thought-provoking attempt which inspires new rethinking on higher education pedagogy...Profoundly theoretical, the book brings far-reaching insights into teaching in higher education and provides useful guidance for higher education teachers, administrators and policymakers to make innovations in teaching and learning."

Qiufen Liu, University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, Shanghai, China

"They brilliantly show how the pedagogical role of the university - what it wants with/for its subjects - has withered in higher education and thus needs to be re-claimed and re-formulated...In conclusion, "Towards a Pedagogy of Higher Education" is a timely book that brilliantly adds a Critical Didaktik -perspective to a field where profound pedagogical considerations have been overtaken by worries about how to effectively implement policy agendas...Well-written and conceptually stimulating, the book provides valuable food-for-thought-and-action for teacher-researchers in higher education and everyone working with university pedagogy."

Kasper A. Sørensen, PhD student in Education, Roskilde University, Denmark

"Higher education pedagogy has so far, on the whole, been surprisingly disconnected from educational scientific theory and philosophy, so Magnússon and Rytzler's book and theory on teaching in higher education is particularly welcome.... Magnússon and Rytzler's proposal for university pedagogy founded in didactics and impregnated with philosophical pedagogy deserves nothing less than a "Finally!" Finally, someone has shown how higher education pedagogy can be anchored in the theoretical foundations and terminology that other branches of educational science connect to. ...the benefit of the book is powerful and its contribution to higher education research, education and development is difficult to overestimate."
