This book offers a new perspective on the professional world of
higher education. Using social practice theory, it presents a
practice sensibility rooted in concepts which illuminate teaching
and learning contexts. The book takes the reader through the social
processes occurring within higher education institutions which
shape contexts and influence the direction of change. For leaders
and managers, educational developers, change agents, and academics,
this sensibility will help to identify the successful paths to
changes for enhancement and the patterns of policy implementation
likely to occur as teaching and learning is enhanced. For
researchers of higher education, the practice sensibility offers
new possibilities for meaningful research into teaching and
learning issues. Teaching and learning regimes are a key focus of
the book. As a family of practices performed by a workgroup in
higher education over extended periods, they comprise a number of
'moments'; characteristics derived from structural foundations
which shape the workgroup's practices and frameworks of meaning.
These moments condition how teaching and learning is fundamentally
understood, what its aims are thought to be, what is considered
'normal' practice, how individuals see themselves and others, and
how power operates within the workgroup. The material context is
significant in this, as are the backstories, personal histories,
and institutional sagas. This book develops a completely new
approach to Trowler's concept of teaching and learning regimes.
Using both his research and that of others in the field, it
presents a more nuanced, fully-developed, and sophisticated version
of the concept which has great traction for empirical research, the
management of change, and the enhancement of the student experience
and learning outcomes.
