* How can academics carve out new and effective ways of working
with students against a background of constant change and policy
pressure? * How can university teachers both enhance student
learning and realize their own educational values? * What might be
the shape of a new professionalism in university teaching? At the
heart of this book is a small group of academics from very
different disciplines making sense of their teaching situations. We
witness each of their struggles and celebrations in designing a new
course, engaging a large first year class, introducing a mentoring
programme, nurturing independent learning through project work,
using debates to develop students' critical thinking, and
evaluating the success of their teaching. This book is the story of
a higher education project, and central to the story are the
attempts of university teachers to enact a critical professionalism
in their everyday lives in teaching and learning; and also their
development of a shared and collaborative dialogue. Each of the
team seeks not only to improve their practice of teaching but also
to explore amongst themselves what kind of professional they want
to be and how to realize it in their work with students.
Reconstructing Professionalism in University Teaching reveals how
academics working together on researching their own teaching can
both improve their students' learning and start to redefine their
own professional roles.
