′Refreshing, original and full of pragmatic, evidence-based advice... In my opinion this is the best book on learning and teaching available to teachers in H.E. and F.E. today. The environment has changed so quickly over recent years and Phil Race has not only kept abreast of the changes; he is way ahead.′ - Professor Ruth Pickford, Director of the Centre for Learning and Teaching, Leeds Metropolitan University
In the age of digital communication, online learning and MOOCS, Higher Education Institutions need to be able to offer even more to their students.
