Much of the student-staff partnership literature calls for increased collaboration and power sharing among staff and students. Less common are accounts by student partners themselves that take up the challenge of what partnership and power feel like as universities embrace their neoliberal trajectory - and - purport to do so on behalf of students…

Direct linkLipscombe, Kylie; Buckley-Walker, Kellie; McNamara, Peter – Professional Development in Education, 2020
Teacher collaboration continues to be deeply grounded within effective professional development. Teacher teams, where small groups of teachers work together in teaching and learning, have become progressively more popular and are considered one of the most effective approaches to improvement and growth. However, teacher teams are situated within a…

Development of a Scenario-Based Instrument to Assess Co-Design Expertise in Humanitarian Engineering
Daniel, Scott; Mazzurco, Andrea – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
Co-design is fundamental to humanitarian engineering and increasingly recognised as such in engineering curricula. However, it is challenging to teach, learn, and assess. In this paper, we describe the development and validation of a scenario-based instrument to distinguish novice and expert approaches to co-design in the context of humanitarian…

Desha, Cheryl; Caldera, Savindi; Hutchinson, Deanna – International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, 2021
Purpose: This study aims to explore the role of planned, sudden shifts in lived experiences, in influencing learner capabilities towards improved problem-solving for sustainable development outcomes. The authors responded to employers of engineering and built environment graduates observing limited "real-life" problem-solving skills,…

Faragher, Rhonda; Stratford, Melanie; Clarke, Barbara – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2017
At the turn of this century, expectations for learning mathematics by students with Down syndrome were low. Research and practice continued to indicate considerable difficulty with number and calculation (Bird & Buckley, 2001). Unfortunately, most authors extrapolated difficulty with number to difficulty with mathematics in general, even…

Matthews, Kelly E.; Mercer-Mapstone, Lucy D. – Studies in Higher Education, 2018
Graduate learning outcomes in undergraduate science degrees increasingly are focussed on the development of transferrable skillsets. Research into, and comparisons of, the perceptions of students and academic staff on such learning outcomes has rarely been explored in science. This study used a quantitative survey to explore the perceptions of 640…

Schulte, Jurgen; Tiffen, Belinda; Edwards, Jackie; Abbott, Scott; Luca, Edward – College & Research Libraries, 2018
In the context of future of academic librarianship terms such as "blended" and "embedded" librarian have been used to describe emerging greater levels of involvement within the universities enterprise. Simultaneously new pedagogical approaches are being developed towards more authentic and engaging learning experiences. This…

Thomas, Sharon; Cordiner, Moira – International Journal for Academic Development, 2014
Little has been written about academic developers (ADs) working in teams leading other ADs. This paper chronicles the experience of a group of ADs in one Australian university working on a curriculum realignment exercise. Unexpectedly the dominant theme in participants' reflections was group dynamics, not the process. We were confronted by…

Dvorakova, Lucie S.; Matthews, Kelly E. – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2017
The development of transferrable skillsets, articulated in statements of graduate learning outcomes, is emphasised in undergraduate science degree programmes. Science students enrolled in dual (double) degrees comprise a significant minority of Australian science undergraduates. Research comparing perceptions of single and dual degree students on…

Matthews, Kelly E.; Firn, Jennifer; Schmidt, Susanne; Whelan, Karen – International Journal of Science Education, 2017
This study investigated students' perceptions of their graduate learning outcomes including content knowledge, communication, writing, teamwork, quantitative skills, and ethical thinking in two Australian universities. One university has a traditional discipline-orientated curriculum and the other, an interdisciplinary curriculum in the entry…

Peer reviewedFoster, Geoff – Higher Education, 1992
Differences in educational practice and culture of a British distance university and Australian traditional university are the basis for analysis of curriculum development methods. It is proposed that, although generally individual faculty design new courses, there are good reasons (efficiency, cohesiveness, professional development, academic…

Peer reviewedDowrick, Margaret K. – British Journal of Special Education, 2002
This article describes an Australian project that brought together educators, parents, and students to identify skills that young people with severe/profound or multiple learning difficulties need to gain before leaving schools. Results were fed back to schools to support the process of curricular review. The four-stage process of achieving…

Keogh, Kathleen; Sterling, Leon; Venables, Anne – Journal of Information Technology Education, 2007
Year-long team projects with external clients provide a well recognized opportunity for students to gain industry experience, whilst being supported and guided by staff to minimize risks. Each group should be supervised to ensure that they have enough direction and confidence to approach a new problem of significant size, without being daunted. A…
