In Higher Education Reconceived: A Geography of Change, authors Sherrie Reynolds and Toni Craven examine the process of change in higher education as they engage the reader in conversation about how we relate to ourselves and to one another. They draw on modern and postmodern elements of higher education as well as personal narratives to address personal change, emergent change, and changing ideas about learning, curriculum, and communities of learning. The traditional view in higher education is that teaching causes learning. However, these authors assess how, as our ideas of student learning, research, and disciplines have developed, our understanding of teaching has evolved as well. Throughout, the authors intimate a sense of the spiritual in the processes of teaching and learning.This holistic volume encourages meditation on the multidimensional journey of teaching and learning, sheds new light on current paradigms of education, and presents ways of living together in a pluralistic and globally connected world. Opening each chapter with a labyrinth illustration to depict the winding and porous nature of the topic, this book should find a place on every educators bookshelf. As teacherscholars together discover a new understanding of higher education fit for our times, they should never forget thatas Reynolds put itBeing a university professor is a sacred trust.TABLE OF CONTENTSChapter One Personal ChangeSherrie Reynolds: ChangeToni Craven: A Story of ChangeChapter Two Emergent ChangeFirst and Second Order ChangeChange as FractalSeeing through Old IdeasChapter Three Changing Ideas about ConsciousnessBedrock IdeasThe Mechanical UniverseA TransitionHow Does This Affect Teaching and Scholarship?Chapter Four Changing Ideas about LearningModern LearningTurning Points in Modern and PostModern LearningPostModern LearningChapter Five Changing Ideas about CurriculumCurriculum As SequencePostModern CurriculumWilliam Dolls Curriculum As MatrixCurriculum as AutobiographyRelationships in a Complex SystemWho Are Our Students?Chapter Six Changing Ideas about Communities of LearningCaring RelationshipsPreparing Myself for ClassUsing FeedbackFaculty and CommunitySearching for ExcellenceA New StoryMetaphors for TeachingSeeing and MoreCaring about StudentsRelationality in Process
