"A very helpful text with a focus on contemporary issues in the field" (Curriculum Development Advisor, Staffordshire University)


I would recommend this book to anyone who works in learning and teaching in higher education. It is particularly beneficial for those who are working to achieve fellowship at Advance HE. as the book consistently refers to The UK Professional Standards Framework. This comprehensive resource is packed with extensive research, making it invaluable for individuals pursing the post graduate certificate. It offers a wealth of tried and tested methods and case-studies, enhancing its practicality and applicability
