Celebrating Intellectual Curiosity: Kindergarten Through College
Scholarship and Research broadens the perspective on academic
pursuits. Curiosity needs to be cultivated at all school levels.
All formats of scholarship and research contribute to increased
human understanding. The criteria for evaluating different
scholarly activity needs to be well matched with the respective
format. Both Scientific and Artistic standards need to be
considered for a deeper appreciation of intents and results. Grade
school children would be well served by being schooled in the four
traditional areas of university faculty evaluation:
teaching-learning; scholarship; service; and colleagueship. The
book uses vignettes and stories to establish the complexities and
utility of varying forms of research. Criteria are identified that
fit the respective approaches. The study looks at The Scholarship
of Teaching; The Scholarship of Teaching as Action Research:
Creative Artistry; Arts Based Research; The Scholarship of Service;
Curriculum Development; The Scholarship of the Student. The
complementary nature of the variety of scholarships reveals an
underlying Ecology of Education that relies upon a great diversity
in roles to maintain a healthy system.
