Description

"Learning Spaces sets out to challenge the notion that academic thinking cannot take place in cramped, busy working spaces, and argues instead for a need to recognise and promote new opportunities for learning spaces to emerge in academic life. The book examines the ideas that: learning spaces are increasingly absent in academic life; the creation and re-creation of learning spaces is vital for the survival of the academic community; the absence of learning spaces is resulting in increasing dissolution and fragmentation of academic identities; and learning spaces need to be valued and possibly redefined in order to regain and maintain the intellectual health of academe."--Jacket.
