Higher education is facing disruption from a range of political, technological, financial, and demographic factors. Many institutions are facing critical questions of change having to revamp their models, merge, or even close outright. While this can be worrying to those leading and teaching in colleges and universities, it also presents a moment to reconsider how to successfully innovate at institutions ranging from start ups, to experimental colleges, to more traditional institutions. This volume considers innovations at a range of schools and institutional levels. The authors share their experiences introducing features and programs, evaluating their effectiveness, changing directions, and incubating novel practices that others can learn from.  By considering scale, structures and culture, the authors show how thoughtful innovation can not only confront higher education s current challenges but prepare colleges and universities for new ways of teaching and learning. 

Noah Coburn is Provost and Vice President for Academics, The Evergreen State College, USA.

Ryan Derby-Talbot is Founding President of Abu Dhabi Experiential College, United Arab Emirates.
