Richard DeMillo has a warning for these colleges and universities in the Middle: If you do not change, you are heading for irrelevance and marginalization. In Abelard to Apple, DeMillo argues that these institutions, clinging precariously to a centuries-old model of higher education, are ignoring the social, historical, and economic forces at work in today's world. In the age of iTunes, open source software, and for-profit online universities, there are new rules for higher education.DeMillo, who has spent years in both academia and in industry, explains how higher education arrived at its current parlous state and offers a road map for the twenty-first century. He describes the evolving model for higher education, from European universities based on a medieval model to American land-grant colleges to Apple's iTunes U and MIT's OpenCourseWare. He offers ten rules to help colleges reinvent themselves (including "Don't romanticize your weaknesses") and argues for a focus on teaching undergraduates. DeMillo's message--for colleges and universities, students, alumni, parents, employers, and politicians--is that any college or university can change course if it defines a compelling value proposition (one not based in "institutional envy" of Harvard and Berkeley) and imagines an institution that delivers it.Universities and collegesUnited StatesEducation, HigherAims and objectivesUnited StatesEducational changeUnited StatesEDUCATION/GeneralSCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY & SOCIETY/GeneralCOMPUTER SCIENCE/GeneralUniversities and collegesEducation, HigherAims and objectivesEducational change378.73DeMillo Richard A534667OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910781872303321Abelard to Apple3714903UNINA01315nam2 22003251i 450 UON0051665720231205105524.72034-461-0753-320230803d1962 |0itac50 bagerDE|||| |||||Kleinere erzählende Schriften 1796-1801Jean PaulMünchenHanser19621263 p.19 cm001UON005166542001 Samtliche WerkeJean Paul[herausgegeben von Norbert MillerNachwort von Walter Höllerer]210 MünchenHanser215 v.19 cm4Letteratura tedescaUONC051344FIDEMünchenUONL003025830Letteratura tedesca21JEAN PAULUONV117184175043HÖLLERERWalterUONV166499MILLERNorbertUONV167771HanserUONV265999650RICHTER, Johann PaulJEAN PAULUONV117185ITSOL20251107RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00516657SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI F.
