An international array of experts pair empirical research with real-world examples of AI implementation in teaching, learning, assessment, and administration. Bringing together critical perspectives from around the world, this state-of-the-art Handbook illustrates the practical dilemmas and ethical stakes of generative AI in lecture halls, research projects, and university governance. Contributors explore emerging trends, risks, and innovative applications of the technology in universities, proposing cutting-edge solutions to the challenges posed by AI to higher education institutions. Drawing on evidence-based scholarship, global case studies, and nuanced critique, this Handbook invites higher education stakeholders to confront AI’s hidden labour and environmental costs, question its social and pedagogical biases, and leverage its opportunities. This Handbook is an essential resource for scholars and students in all areas of higher education research and policy, particularly those focused on the expanding role of AI. Administrators, institutional leaders, and policymakers will profit from its invaluable insights into policy and governance. It is also of interest to curriculum developers and teachers, due to its actionable recommendations on the optimal use of this new technology.

What does it mean to teach well? In short, it means a willingness to do anything that helps students learn.

Each chapter is framed by key questions meant to hone teachers’ crafts and encourage important conversations. Further, this engaging book examines the crucial steps of bringing educators’ identities and backgrounds into practice by soliciting and responding to student feedback, negotiating power dynamics, and the ways institutional constraints, students, and self-concepts can sabotage efforts.A timely text, Teaching Well is the ideal companion for all college and university educators and experienced practitioners across the globe who continue to reflect critically about their teaching practice.

This handbook provides a frame of reference for the global challenges facing higher education leadership today. Focusing on recommendations and directions for the future rather than simply a recap of measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic, the contributors also delve into contexts such as the climate crisis, issues of diversity, equity and inclusion, digitalisation, funding and marketisation, the war in Ukraine and China-Taiwan and Hong Kong tensions. They collate a systematic, global view of higher education systems during the pandemic and beyond, and explore possibilities for the future, providing recommendations for ‘the new normal’. With contributions from across six continents, the book will be of interest to students and scholars of higher education and governance, university leaders, government and accreditation bodies, and anyone else interested in reflecting on the past few years in higher education and the road ahead.
