It debates whether recent transformations of higher education, rather than an effect of neo-liberalization, are actually an outflow of the technological acceleration of the university?s own contradictory ideals around knowledge and democracy. The book sets up this argument by likening the university to a ?vision machine? which quest for total scientific and social transparency has recently caved in on itself, negatively affecting staff and student well-being. The book asserts that this situation reveals the essential tension at the heart of the university system, and explores the acceleration of this tension by analyzing a variety of teaching and research advances from Europe and Asia. Examining among other issues the call for creativity and critical thinking in the curriculum, the push for e-learning, and the advent of the digital humanities, this text offers a key analysis of the university?s founding ideals and its constitutive relationship to technological acceleration. 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aEducational technology 606 $aDigital humanities 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aDigital Education and Educational Technology 606 $aDigital Humanities 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aEducational technology. 615 0$aDigital humanities. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aDigital Education and Educational Technology. 615 24$aDigital Humanities. 676 $a378 700 $aHoofd$b Ingrid M.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0962848 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910149453103321 996 $aHigher Education and Technological Acceleration$92538902 997 $aUNINA
