Improving What is Learned at University:An exploration of the social and organisational diversity of university education (2009)

Abstract
Drawing on the findings of the SOMUL project, this book examines ‘what is really learned at university’ and how much the social and organisational factors influence on shaping these outcomes. It challenges the assumption of reputational hierarchy and and highlights diversities and commonalities in student experience of higher education today. It poses important questions for higher education institutions about the kind of institution they are and want to be, about the kinds of experiences they seek to provide for their students and the kinds of consequences for their graduates and society. With new empirical data and some novel conceptualisations of higher education, this book provides answers to these questions in ways which do not always follow conventional lines of thought about diversity and difference in UK higher education.. 1701. 1740. 16. 15. 1654. 114. 1660. 48. 1687. 1732. 131. 111. 57. 19. 1861. 1681. 1810. 1709. 73. 91. 1912. 1846. 1916. 1726. 7. 107. 24. 1747. 1673. 3. 1827. 4. 12. 109
