Produktbeschreibung

Exploring issues of methodology and their practical application, this narrative project speaks to the construction of identity for the liberal arts in today's higher education climate. Narrative, Identity, and Academic Community focuses on the ways a cross-disciplinary emphasis on narrative can impact institutions in North America and contribute to the discussion of strategies to foster bottom-up, faculty-driven collaboration and innovation.
