An invaluable dip-in aid for hard-pressed lecturers and teachers in further and higher education. It should be read, enjoyed and seriously considered by all those concerned about the quality and appropriateness of their assessment methods.
Exploring the issue of how educational staff can balance successfully their research and teaching activities, this volume argues that the entire system governing the relationship amongst research, teaching and learning should be dismantled and rebuilt, focusing on symbiosis rather than conflict.
This handbook seeks to provide practical, realistic suggestions about how quality can be measured, maintained and improved in institutions. It is addressed to a cross-section of staff who make up colleges and universities, not just those responsible for quality audit.
