Reseña del editor:

What issues need to be considered in designing a course or unit of study in higher education? Who should be involved in designing a course, and how can they best work together? What should students get out of a course? This text focuses not on teaching techniques but on the strategic decisions which must be made before a course begins. It provides realistic advice for university and college teachers on how to design more effective courses without underestimating the complexity of the task facing course developers. In particular, it examines the challenges involved in leading course design teams, getting agreement among teaching staff and managing organizational politics. The book also explores the key role played by academics' own values and beliefs in shaping course design and student experience. In doing so the author offers course designers both an understanding and a framework within which to clarify their own teaching purposes.
