Sommario/riassunto |
|
Performance-Based Funding in Higher Education examines the aims of higher education policies over the past thirty years. This book addresses how job creation and increased graduation rates has distracted educators, students, and surrounding communities from an educator's traditional and valued role as the promoter of democracy and critical citizenship. |
