Synopsis

Duke assesses to what extent institutions of higher education are examining their role and modifying it to reflect changes in society and educational theory. In particular he asks to what extent the concept of lifelong learning is represented in institutional planning, both in terms of addressing the needs of students and promoting staff development.

Synopsis

Chris Duke addresses issues central to the evolution and future of higher education. He examines assumptions by and about universities, their changing environments, the new terminologies and their adaptation to new circumstances. He explores how far universities are learning, changing and adapting; and whether they are becoming different kinds of institutions or whether only the rhetoric is altering. '...should be required reading for those concerned with continuing education, or higher education...' - "NATFHE Journal".
