Challenge and Opportunity

John D. Dennison, John Dennison

Challenge and Opportunity provides a critical analysis of the most significant developments in the college systems in every province and territory since 1985. With contributions by leading scholars, it addresses such topics as leadership, entrepreneurship, new forms of organization, accountability, instructional methodology, the emergence of a college culture, and education of aboriginal students. Key questions are explored. How are differences in collective and individual interests to be managed? How can social, economic, and demographic realities be taken into account in managing the 'intangible capital' of education? What are the best ways of ensuring opportunities for education, training, flexibility, and varied access and mobility within higher education systems?
