The Learning Paradigm College

If you are an educator and have not read this book, then you must do so to examine your own pedagogical style, if for no other reason. But, keep a pot of coffee near by and expect to feel like you've heard this all before somewhere at the more soporific moments.

John Tagg's "The Learning Paradigm College" is one of the very greatest books on higher education that I have ever read, and I have read a lot of them. Tagg has mastered the best recent thinking on the subject and presented it (I should say transformed it) with a clarity of mind and depth of understanding that is his alone. Furthermore, he is right on virtually all counts. The book can even be applied to secondary education with illuminating results.
