furth of the Forth | ag foghlaim
https://galwaycelt.wordpress.com/2014/06/08/furth-of-the-forth
Furth of the Forth. June 8, 2014. But, when it comes together and a new project emerges, the excitement overcomes the hassle, and if we’re lucky enough for the project itself to succeed, for data to pour in, ideas to evolve, publications, research students, a little (very little, usually) further pushing of the boundaries of knowledge, then it seems worth the minor discomforts and inconveniences. And curiously, that BBC motto of ‘nation speaking unto nation’ seems so inappropriate as to the external view...

FutureED She asked for our opinions, she’ll get them ;-). January 26, 2014. This week, Cathy Davidson’s much touted MOOC. Have we, now in this post-Blair era of fees, privatization and commodification, of unaffordability and debt, of ‘mission drift’ (from teaching to some narrow conception of ‘research’), lost what meant so much to us? Divide and conquer, fragment and lose the ethereal glue that made something different, something distinct. Not a course, but an education. Only for the wealthy, only for t...

March 3, 2014. Dublin at night; flickr; CC, Sebastian Dooris. One of the interesting takes on the MOOC chit-chat that I’m a little surprised we don’t hear too much about, is what the experience tells us about the realities of part-time study. Yet, how often are we being told from various sources these days that perhaps one solution to the fees-crisis of higher education is for more students to study part-time? So where do MOOCs figure in this? Of men and metrics →. Studies in Higher Education. Individual...

December 15, 2013. Management. Increasingly built on business models, the shift from President/Principa/Vice-Chancellor to CEO; after all aren’t universities multi-million Euro operations, don’t they need the discipline and efficiency of the private sector, or at the very least a form of ‘public accountability’ that isn’t reliant on academic values, personal integrity or something as unreliable as a sense of public service? So we’re told. The Social Science Centre. There are considerable attractions in s...

Here we go again. February 10, 2014. At a time in which some in even the US are considering the removal of tuition fees. There’s a weary irony in the prospect of the return of fees being mooted again in Ireland. Fueled by the Irish Independent,. The number of students in higher education increased by over 24% in the period 2003-2012 and the funding didn’t exactly keep pace, with a real terms cut of over 20% in funding per student in the same period. There is a funding crisis and it is compounded by the c...
