Transformations and Changing Perspectives in Higher Education: India's Last Decade

This book reveals the intricacies of the Indian education system, especially those that surged in the past decade. It covers several perspectives of global higher education, wherein the dynamic trends and frameworks are explicated for a better understanding of the curriculum design and delivery of higher education in India. It facilitates students’ learning and experiences, wherein the post-pandemic insights for learning from remote locations could be gleaned.

This volume looks at the complexities in the functioning of educational institutions and suggests novel approaches and interventions that are crucial for the educational framework of India. It attempts to draw theoretical implications of the educational system and uses empirical evidence for recommending actionable processes.
