Utah State University Regional Campuses & Distance Education 2011 Annual Report
In their new book, “The Innovative University,” authors Clayton M. Christensen and Henry J. Eyring contend that traditional brick and mortar universities in the U.S. appear to be in “educational decline” relative to other countries. They assert, using the lens of Christensen’s “theory of disruptive innovation,” that unless these same universities reevaluate and even reinvent curricula to better prepare students for the increasing demands of the working world, their influence and appeal will steadily decline giving way to more innovative educational models.
