This book explores the purpose, role and function of the university
and examines the disconnection between students’ approaches to
learning and university strategy. It centres on the idea that it is
vital to explore what counts as a university in the twenty-first
century, what it is for, and for whom, as well as how it can transcend
social divisions. The universities of the twenty-first century need to
have larger audiences, a broader voice, a shift away from othering and
an effective means of progressing such shifts. What is central to such
exploration is the idea that learning needs to be seen as postdigital.
With a focus on how the growth of technology has and continues to
affect university learning, this book: explores the concepts of the
digital and the postdigital promotes just and inclusive pedagogies for
higher education considers ways to ensure learning is an ethical and
political experience studies how to understand community and
collective values through higher education suggests ways of promoting
personal and collective responsibility for our world and its peoples
presents ways in which the university can challenge ideologies based
on capitalist modes of consumption, privilege and exploitation Digital
and Postdigital Learning for Changing Universities is essential
reading for anyone seeking to reimagine the university in a
postdigital age, despite institutional structuration and government
intervention. It challenges current assumptions and practices, and
encourages new ways of thinking about higher education and learning in
the twenty-first century.
