As higher education institutions experience a decline in government funding, they face growing pressure to demonstrate their legitimacy and purpose. Although participation in higher education internationally has widened as a result of national policies ensuring greater access, higher education institutions today compete within a common global market for staff, students, graduates, and alternative sources of income. The intent of the volume is to offer much-needed documentation of policy approaches taken in a number countries but also an analysis of why certain approaches are more effective than others, why some fail, or perhaps most important, why some are effective and feasible in one country but not in another.
"International Policy Perspectives on Improving Learning with Limited Resources" is the 133rd issue of the quarterly journal "New Directions for Higher Education, " published by "Jossey-Bass."
