Tutors Despair
Academics in the UK have complained that they are regularly torn between the desire to help struggling students, keeping them on courses with only limited resources, and the wish to maintain academic standards. Afrank internal online discussion by academics at the University of Central Lancashire on the future strategic direction of the B-school, leaked to The Times Higher, reveals the daily frustrations faced by lecturers. One academic said: We give them chance after chance for fear of losing them… we need to recruit better students, not simply more. While another had to say. And what are we doing it anyway? The good of student.
