The New Education Av Cathy N. Davidson

<P><B>“One of the most thoughtful voices from within academia” (<I>Washington Post</I>) argues the American university is stuck in the past—and shows how we can revolutionize it</B></P><P>We’re living in a period of great upheaval—yet there hasn't been a corresponding change in our system of higher education. In <I>The New Education</I>, Cathy N. Davidson argues we need a new theory and practice of learning that emphasizes achievement not as a score on a test but as the ability to navigate a job market—and a world—in constant flux. Davidson offers lessons for remaking higher education for our own time, for every institution from the Ivy League to the poorest community college.</P><P>Now with a new introduction that addresses the benefits and challenges of remote learning and an appendix that offers practical advice on how institutions can change, <I>The New Education</I> is essential reading for educators, parents, and students.
