One of the most thoughtful voices from within academia (Washington Post) argues the American university is stuck in the past--and shows how we can revolutionize it

We're living in a period of great upheaval--yet there hasn't been a corresponding change in our system of higher education. In The New Education, Cathy N. Davidson argues we need a new theory and practice of learning that emphasizes achievement not as a score on a test but as the ability to navigate a job market--and a world--in constant flux. Davidson offers lessons for remaking higher education for our own time, for every institution from the Ivy League to the poorest community college.
