Description

Hope Circuits: A call to action for higher education reform. Drawing on experience in governance, senior administration, and scholarship, this book provides conceptual tools to help readers develop solutions to the academy's most pressing issues.

The author invites all higher education stakeholders to engage with complex problems affecting universities, including learning, teaching, mentorship, leadership, governance, research, valuing, measuring, and funding. Through provocative stand-alone chapters, the book brings fresh perspectives to longstanding challenges.

Hope Circuits aims to rewire mindsets, perspectives, and behaviours, ultimately renewing systems within which readers learn, live, and work. The book offers ten conceptual tools to build "hope circuits", helping to rethink higher-education systems for the better through creative application of university-design theory.
