Online Book - The Experience of Learning

The Experience of Learning: "The Experience of Learning was first published in 1984, and a revised and expanded second edition appeared in 1997. Both editions were published under the imprint of Scottish Academic Press. However, the book is currently out of print and no longer available from the publishers. This is particularly unfortunate since interest in the ground-breaking content of The Experience of Learning remains bouyant, and it continues to be regularly cited by researchers, teachers and others concerned with the pedagogy of higher education.

The editors have therefore decided that the best course of action would be to make the book's contents widely and freely available on the World Wide Web, for as long as it continues to attract a readership. The present Internet version was produced in 2005. Any of the chapters may be downloaded free of charge as PDF files by clicking on the chapter titles below. They may also be photocopied or reproduced for non-profit educational purposes, provided that the source is explicitly and openly acknowledged and no amendments are made to the text. Formal copyright remains with the editors and contributors, who continue to assert their moral rights. Since the PDF versions of the book's chapters retain their pagination, these can continue to be referred to in any future citations. "
