It's a critically important question. Gloria Cordes Larson, president of Bentley University, explains why today's practices in higher education are inadequate preparation for our rapidly evolving innovation economy.  Instead, she passionately advocates for a hybrid-learning model that integrates business education with traditional liberal arts courses. Today's businesses demand a new kind of hybrid graduate, possessed of both hard and soft skills, with the courage to take risks, the creativity to innovate, and the savvy to excel in a turbulent competitive climate. This book is a valuable resource for participants in every learning community: our homes, schools, and businesses. It will change the way you think about what excellence in education means in today's business environment as you develop strategies that will move our children, students, and future employees forward in a rapidly changing and very challenging world. Prepared with that training and knowledge, they will find greater fulfillment and make their own mark on the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Higher Education’s Challenge to Change\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Yesterday’s Education Meets Today’s World\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 The Innovation Economy Needs a New Graduate\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Students Need a New Experience\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 The Case for Place-Based Education\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Hybrid Learning\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 The Promise of a New Generation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfterword\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Education [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Education\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Education%20%5BJN%5D%22\"\u003eJN\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Jossey-Bass","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52428572164376,"sku":"9781119402398","price":16.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781119402398_301384.jpg?v=1784680159","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/preparedu-how-innovative-colleges-drive-student-success-hardback-9781119402398","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
