at last! today @czernie and I submitted the book manuscript 'Higher Education for Good: Teaching and Learning Futures' (#HE4Good). we are immensely proud of this collaborative collection of 27 chapters by 71 authors in 17 countries. what a privilege to work with wonderful scholars who are defining, theorising, imagining & working to create just, humane and globally sustainable higher education, for all.
#HE4Good will be openly published later this year.
#HE4Good chapters are written in a variety of forms –inviting readers to “imagine beyond the given” (Octavia Butler)– critical reflections, conceptual essays, dialogues, speculative fiction, poetry, graphic reflection, image & audio. the volume also includes artwork related to the book's themes.
warmest thanks to all authors, artists and reviewers. #onward
After decades of turbulence and acute crises in recent years, how can we build a better future for Higher Education? Thoughtfully edited by Laura Czerniewicz and Catherine Cronin, this rich and diverse collection by academics and professionals from across 17 countries and many disciplines offers a variety of answers to this question. It addresses the need to set new values for universities, trapped today in narratives dominated by financial incentives and performance indicators, and examines those “wicked” problems which need multiple solutions, resolutions, experiments, and imaginaries.
how wonderful to be able to share the book cover of 'Higher Education for Good' #HE4Good – soon to be published by @OpenBookPublish. as co-editors, @czernie and I cannot wait to share this work of "critique, hope and purpose", a collaboration with over 70 authors and artists.
