He is also a human lie-detector. Working with Jess, who can talk to animals, a pigeon called Dexter, and a rather clever goldfish called Bob, he must find out who is changing his fellow pupils into mindlessly smiling model students...
Developing the Global Student addresses the question of how students of higher education can emerge from their university life better equipped to dwell more effectively, ethically, and comfortably amidst the turmoils of a globalizing world. It does this from a number of theoretical perspectives, illustrating the nature of the personal and educational challenges facing the individual student and the teaching professional.
The book explores the massive social changes wrought by the technologies and mobilities of globalization, particularly how present and future generations will relate to, work with and dwell alongside the global other. It outlines a range of social, psychological and intercultural perspectives on human tendencies to seek out comfort among communities of similitude, and illustrates how the experience of life in a global era requires us to transcend the limits of our own biographies and approach university education as a matter of knowledge deconstruction and identity reconstruction, rather than reproduction.
This book brings these considerations directly into the daily business of higher education by drawing out the implications for practice at a number of levels. It examines:
the implications of a globally interconnected world and individual biographies for the design of the curriculum;
a holistic view of learning in the context of the need to develop the global self;
what the impact on non-academic practice will be if universities as institutions are to enable these changes;
ways in which the broader student community can transform to offer an experience which is more supportive of the development of global selves.
Linking theoretical perspectives to present a model of learning as change, this book will be of great interest to those working in higher education, and particularly to anyone involved in policy design and the delivery of the student experience.

Описание: The Alton Estate is widely acclaimed as one of the seminal works of the modern architecture in Britain. Yet few know its creators, four ambitious young architects in the employ of the London County Council: Bill Howell, John Killick, John Partridge, and Stan Amis.
Howell Killick Partridge & Amis tells the story of these four architects who launched their firm with a maverick design for Churchill College, Cambridge. Deriving a distinct design language from revealed structures and highly modeled surfaces, Howell Killick Partridge & Amis (HKPA) developed a rich architecture that they applied to a range of projects--from additions to Oxford and Cambridge Colleges to theaters, houses, and government buildings. Although a mastery of precast concrete and a preference for raw finishes earned them an early reputation as brutalists, their sensitivity to context, refined sense of light and materials, and eye for the qualities of historic buildings transcends any single style. Geraint Franklin has combined interviews with archival research to tell the story behind HPKA's built and unrealized projects. Lavishly illustrated with new photography by James O. Davies and images from the archive, the book is a must for students and architects wanting to discover this key practice in British postwar architecture.
