x, 309 pages "Drawn heavily on research, What Comes Next in Higher Ed makes the case for why change is needed in post-secondary education and provides a promising path forward for new networks and ecosystems of learning and workforce development. Instead of using a university-centric approach, Dr. Ambrose and Dr. Wankel see the need for leadership in creating and nurturing networks and ecosystems that include employers, K-12 educators, post-secondary educators, and policy-makers. These ecosystems recognize and endorse multiple pathways to creating and credentialing self-directed learners who can meet the needs of a rapidly changing employment, social, and political landscape. In this book, Dr. Ambrose and Dr. Wankel provide an integrative approach that will enable administrators of all levels to understand the forces that result in the call to change, and provide a roadmap for how to think about their response given their role and institution, e.g., who is their current learner audience and who might/should it be, how will they adapt structures and pedagogies to address the learner audiences to what end. While all of these issues are written and talked about in various publications, they are dispersed. This book will bring them all together, making it more likely that educators and administrators will read it"-- Susan A. Ambrose, Laura Wankel. Includes bibliographical references and index.
