Higher Education Conference Projects In 2002 we started the process of rolling out a series of innovative and cutting edge research projects to explore issues which lie at the very heart of contemporary higher education. The projects are successfully bringing together people from across the world who are involved in and associated with all aspects of higher education to share ideas, perspectives, and insights. Project areas presently include; Higher Education Projects Programme The Idea of Education Virtual Learning & Higher Education Higher Education, Copyright, & Intellectual Property Creative Engagements: Thinking with Children The Value of Knowledge Managerialism and Higher Education = new project. Clicking on a title will take you to the main page for all the materials related to that project. Titles will go live as new materials and information are released. We are also working on further areas for project research, including equality and diversity in higher education education and work education, teaching, and training students, clients, and consumers We welcome suggestions for projects which deal with other themes relating to higher education. If you would like to be a project leader for an existing or a new project, please do not hesitate to contact us. All Higher Education conference projects are supported by dedicated e-mail discussion groups in order to facilitate ongoing discussion and the sharing of information and resources, along with the establishment of a focused ISSN e-journal to help promote international dialogue and excellence, and a themed ISBN publication series.
