Heidegger's Contribution to the Understanding of Work-Based Studies

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book seeks to develop the philosophy of Heidegger notion in the expanding importance of work based studies which is becoming a special interest to higher education institution and commercial organisations. The position of the author acknowledges the dominance of the economic discourse of higher education but in this book tries to argue that Heidegger offers a phenomenological approach to understanding the diversity to higher education that work based learning can bring. The book offers a structured argument for a phenomenology understanding of both the educational institution and the commercial environment to be considered as workplaces.
