Being a University in the Digital Age
Higher Education is by no means immune to the digital revolution, nor to the pressures and needs of a fast-changing education landscape. A number of institutions have looked at embracing technology, whereas others are slower to engage.
This is in contrast to some new emerging universities that embrace technology and new education models and pedagogies to the full.
We hear from five universities how they reinvent, transform or emerge as new education players in a digital age, in an interview-style panel.
