Reviews

Praise for the First Edition This book addresses a key and continuing need: how we support the transition from student to graduate, and lay the foundations for sustainable employability and a fulfilling life in an increasingly competitive world. Arti's book delivers both understanding and practical 'tools' for enabling the shift our students need to make. -Rob Ward, Director, the Centre for Recording Achievement I found Arti Kumar's book stimulating and refreshing and believe the model would have enabled me to adapt my own teaching in ways that would have greatly enriched my students' learning. I recommend this book to all academics. The tool will certainly make you reflect on your teaching and foster a foundation for lifelong learning in your students. -Michael Pittilo, Principal and Vice-Chancellor of The Robert Gordon University
