Review :
Throughthe third volume of Honors Education in Transition, editors Glover and O'Flaherty provide a critical space for honors colleagues to share practical experiences, creative pedagogical strategies and fresh programmatic approaches. Glover and O'Flaherty highlight through their collection that honors education is, at its best, a shared enterprise, one that fosters learning and exploration among and across academic institutions. They furthermore lead us to question the very meaning of “innovation” in higher education and to consider the essential role honors colleges and programs can and should play in a rapidly changing academic milieu. Thus Structural Challenges and the Future of Honors Education makes an important contribution to honors education, providing a helpful new resource as well as an excellent model for future collaborative work. This volume underlines the beauty of honors education as a dynamic ongoing process. How worthy is this volume, offering the reader ideas of how honors education might stand out and persist in the face of larger structural dynamics in higher education. The authors present a hopeful and constructive vision for the future of honors education. This vision gives the volume coherence, with various innovative examples, especially in the domain of e-learning. Honors serves as an educational laboratory for teachers and a fun playground for students. The practical examples and the “Key Ideas” at the end of each chapter combined with various theories make this volume easy to use and nice to read. This volume can help educators and teachers create, manage, streamline and teach honors without comprising the quality of the experience.
