Elisa K. Bone; Sarah French; Christopher C. Deneen; Michael Prosser – Teaching in Higher Education, 2025
University curriculum systems are complex, and their modification requires coordinating multiple processes and broad consultation with teaching academics and leaders.

Navé Wald; Tony Harland – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
We explore the idea that teaching students as "scholars" can change their education within a values discourse that promotes certain personal attributes, including being engaged members of their university and society. The idea partially opposes the dominant neoliberal framing of higher education but is not foreign to normal academic…

Lauren Ila Misiaszek – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
Having recently completed my first decade in China's Normal System, in this Point of Departure (PoD) I explore precarity in higher education teaching using four tools: "slipstream," "fugia hacia adelante," "exophony," and autoethnography. This is an exploration in the form of a structured performance of precarities…

Meg Colasante – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
Activity theory is a relatively young methodology for researching higher education teaching practices. Beyond systemic analyse of workplace activities and their development, activity theory used in its full interventionist capacity can foster practitioners' transformative agency to initiate practice change. Nevertheless, this is not an easy…

Bruce Macfarlane – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
The paper sets out a conceptual argument that the choice of teaching method is part of the freedom to teach in higher education. It enters into a dialogue with the views of Stephen Finn in a paper published in "Teaching in Higher Education" in which he argues that academic freedom should be limited in respect to teaching methods. The…

Harland, Tony; Wald, Navé – Teaching in Higher Education, 2018
This paper examines the proposition that the quality of university teaching in the research-intensive university is affected by various compliance demands on academic work that are meant to either enhance or be complementary to teaching. These include holding academics to account for the quality of both research and teaching. Our research aims to…

Pitcher, Rod – Teaching in Higher Education, 2014
In this paper, I report my investigation of the use of metaphors in teaching theory in electronic engineering. I give a description of the nature of metaphors, how they are used in teaching the theory and some of the problems that might arise in the process. I investigate how some people react to the metaphors and how others forget the metaphors…

Jones, Anna – Teaching in Higher Education, 2014
This paper uses the notion of perspectives, derived from Activity Systems Theory as a lens through which to examine the process of change in one UK university. It argues that change is a multidimensional phenomenon and so examines the drivers and barriers towards change in teaching practices through the differing and at times conflicting…

Kreber, Carolin; McCune, Velda; Klampfleitner, Monika – Teaching in Higher Education, 2010
Recent literature in higher and adult education has identified "authenticity" in teaching as a significant yet under-researched phenomenon lacking a straight-forward definition. By exploring how academic teachers and their students, next to educational theorists and philosophers, understand the notion of authenticity in teaching we offer…

Benson, Robyn; Brack, Charlotte – Teaching in Higher Education, 2009
Discourse about the scholarship of teaching and learning appears to represent some views about higher education more than others. For example, disciplinary perspectives have been acknowledged, and ideas from critical theory and phenomenography have been presented, with the role of reflection receiving considerable attention. While approaches to…

Lee, Tsang-Hsiung; Shen, Pei-Di; Tsai, Chia-Wen – Teaching in Higher Education, 2010
This study explored the effects of web-enabled pedagogies on students' involvement in learning. A series of quasi-experiments were conducted to investigate whether students' involvement increases over time if intervened, respectively, by problem-based learning (PBL), self-regulated learning (SRL), and their combinations. Two classes of 102…
