Download or read book The Law and Higher Education written by Michael A. Olivas and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its third edition, this book reflects the extraordinary growth in "the law of higher education" and the accompanying rise in scholarship and commentary on higher education law and governance. The case selection reflects major themes and issues. To this end, cases with interesting facts but less precedential value, news accounts of fascinating developments, and insights and articles from scholars and practitioners have also been used. The result is a unique book on a rapidly growing area of law and society. "Despite Professor Olivas's caution about making comparisons between this work and the acknowledged standard treatise in the field (William Kaplin's Law and Higher Education), these two volumes should be viewed by attorneys, academicians, and administrators as complementary. Unlike a treatise, the Olivas casebook gives the reader a comprehensive array of cases and court decisions on these subjects. Professor Olivas writes overviews to provide contextual detail and history... [Chapter 2 is] an excellent example of the prudent use of cases... [Chapter 3] contains a panoply of material taken from a variety of sources about fascinating episodes, disputes, and court cases... This is rich material..." -- Bimonthly Review of Law Books, on the first edition"The Law and Higher Education... has become not merely a reference, but an archive in its own right." -- Scott Chafin, Media Reviews, on the second edition"In both the casebook and the teachers' manual, the author's sense of humor, knowledge of popular culture, and breadth of knowledge about higher education come out clearly and loudly. Olivas is an attorney who knows both administrative practice and the law and is effectively able to pass that knowledge on to his readers." -- NASPA Journal, 2007
Download or read book English as a Medium of Instruction in Higher Education written by Wenli Tsou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the multiple facets of English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) in higher education across various academic disciplines, an area that is expected to grow constantly in response to the competitive global higher education market. The studies presented were conducted in various EMI classrooms, with data collected from observing and documenting the teaching activities, and from interviewing or surveying EMI participants. Through data analysis and synthesis, cases across disciplines – from engineering, science, technology, business, social science, medical science, design and arts, to tourism and leisure service sectors – are used to illustrate the various EMI curriculum designs and classroom practices. Although the cases described are limited to Taiwanese institutions, the book bridges the gap between planning and executing EMI programs across academic domains for policy makers, administrators, content teachers, and teacher trainers throughout Asia.

Download or read book Bilingual Higher Education in the Legal Context written by Xabier Arzoz and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2012-02-17 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to complex questions of building and developing legal education in more than one language, through two state languages (French and Dutch in Belgium, German and French in Switzerland, English and French in Canada, Finnish and Swedish in Finland) and/or through the medium of minority or lesser used languages (Basque, Galician, Catalan, Welsh, Romanian). Some states have a long and well-established tradition of bilingual legal education; others have only recently started to develop a legal education system through non-dominant languages; finally, in some other cases only partial bilingual legal education obtains, rather than a fuller model. The volume purports to examine best practices and to draw useful lessons from the experiences of other bilingual societies.
