Pedagogy and the University by Monica Mclean

The question of what form of pedagogy should be used at university is a complex and important one. So too is the question of how the contemporary university should develop. In this book Monica McLean advances fresh and lucid arguments concerning both. Drawing on the theories of Jurgen Habermas, she demonstrates how these two apparently disparate questions are in fact closely linked. In the process McLean provides unique insights into the relationship between macro and micro issues in higher education.
"'In Pedagogy and the University, Monica McLean has produced an impressive and compelling work of scholarship, in which she develops a robust argument for critical pedagogies in universities' Teaching in Higher Education, v12, No 4, August 2007 '... plenty of passion and engagement in McLean's reading of Habermas, particularly where she describes the kind of teaching that could occur in higher education involving all three realms of interest.' Studies in Higher Education, v32, No 4, August 2007"
Dr McLean is Reader in Higher Education at the University of Nottingham. She has published numerous articles in UK and US Journals such as: Teaching in Higher Education; British Journal of Sociology of Education; Teachers and Teaching; Journal of Teacher Development.
