Understanding learning-centred higher education

Claus Nygaard & Clive Holtham

"Understanding Learning-Centred Higher Education" addresses the importance of moving from a content-based view to a learning-centred view of higher education. In 18 chapters researchers and practitioners from five continents discuss three central themes that concern learning-centred higher education: the concept of learning; curriculum; and learning, teaching and assessment (LTA) processes.
