Book Synopsis Socially Just Pedagogies, Capabilities and Quality in Higher Education by : Melanie Walker
Book excerpt: This book explores the idea that teaching and learning – pedagogy – at universities is a crucial space for students’ formation as ethical graduates, equipped with knowledge, skills and values to contribute to more equal societies.

This book suggests how this could be achieved both via policy and practice around the globe
