This post is the first of a series on change (or lack of it) in higher education. "If HE wishes to achieve long-lasting and constructive change," writes Gilly Salmon, "disruption needs to occur first and be accompanied by an increased tolerance of thinking differently about how new educational futures are created." Reading the article, it feels to me like the main message is that the universities should own the change, rather than to see their primary role as resisting it.
