“The new competition, the real threat . . . is the emergence of entirely
new models of university which are seeking to exploit the radically
changed circumstances that are the result of globalisation and the
digital revolution.”

“There is no doubt that digital technologies have had a profound impact upon the management of learning. Institutions can now recruit, register, monitor, and report on students with a new economy, efficiency, and (sometimes) creativity yet, evidence of digital technologies producing real transformation in learning and teaching remains elusive”

Information Literacy
• "Information literacy is the adoption of appropriate information behaviour to identify, through whatever channel or medium, information well fitted to information needs, leading to wise and ethical use of information in society.”
(Johnston, B. & Webber, S. (2003) Information literacy in higher education: a review and case study. Studies in higher education)

Learning Environment:Key features
• prepare students for lifelong, self-regulated, cooperative and work-based learning;
• foster high quality student learning;• change teaching methods in response to students’
increasing metacognitive and self-regulatory skills, • increases the complexity of the problems dealt with
gradually and systematically.
Vermunt, J.D, Student Learning and University Teaching (2007), British Journal of Educational Psychology

Process orientated teaching: key features
• lecturer skills - diagnostician, challenger, monitor, evaluator and educational developer.
• self-regulation for students e.g. collaborative working spaces, complex projects and personal reflective spaces.
• Institutional support to encourage this type of student in a self regulating researcher culture.
