Title Effect of Digital Governance on the Quality of Higher Education: The Case of Central European University
Summary Assessing quality in university education is a serious challenge as it is a complex phenomenon. There is a dearth of studies that assess the effects of digital governance on the quality of university education. This study tries to contribute to this gap by exploring the effect of digital governance on the quality of higher education through the case of Central European University. Twelve in-depth expert interviews were conducted from selected faculty members in addition to the study of written sources of data. This study employs triangulation to crosscheck consistency in data and conclusions of earlier studies. The study revealed that although faculty are using different kinds of digital tools and platforms while delivering their courses, they are not deeply familiar with the instruments of digital governance. They are incorporating many online and offline activities in their instruction. In their opinion, a combination of both conventional and digital learning tools is necessary for improving quality in education. The research recommends that universities should devise new policies to address digital governance and encourage its faculty to incorporate more digital tools in their pedagogical practices.
