Awakening the Academy
註釋Higher education institutions face myriad difficulties as they try to adjust to a changing environment. What forces catalyze these changes? What traditions block them? How can institutions align these forces? Does it take a crisis? Putting the microscope to three significant academic units at the University of California-Los Angeles (the business school, graduate education and information studies, and the physics and astronomy department), the authors gained a better understanding of how the university interacts with its environment and how it manages its own processes of change. In a book that is a compellingly good read, the authors relay fascinating and universal stories of change-causes, processes, and results-that administrators and faculty at any higher education institution can apply to their own contexts.
