Historian Alan Booth says there is a growing feeling on both sides of the Atlantic
that the shift from school to university-style learning could be vastly improved. But
little consensus exists about who or what is at fault when the students cannot cope.
�School teachers commonly blame the poor quality of university teaching, citing
factors such as large first-year lectures, the widespread use of inexperienced
postgraduate tutors and the general lack of concern for students in an environment
where research is dominant in career progression,� Dr Booth said.
Thanks a lot.
