Description
Stimulated by and reflecting some of the debate following the publication of the 1991 Further and Higher Education Bill and its subsequent enactment, this text also draws on the preliminary findings of a national research product funded by a partnership of government, business and higher education, and is designed to develop and test methods for systematically assessing quality. The focus here is on the quality of teaching and learning. The book illustrates the extent to which quality has overtaken efficiency as the key challenge facing higher education in the 1990s. It underlines the growing awareness that institutions are accountable not only to the government which funds them, but also, in an increasingly competative higher education market, to the customers - the student.
