Read Online Academic Growth In Higher Education: Questions And Answers Presented By Helena Pedrosa-De-Jesus Contained In Paperback
changes in higher education have derived from Europewide initiatives such as the Bologna process, and have given increasing attention to studentcentred learning and teaching approaches, allied to growth in teachers' scholarship and academic development.
Academic Growth in Higher Education: Questions and Answers centers around a decadelong research project, which is one component of a longstanding programme focused on ways to promote academic development and scholarship in higher education.
The purpose of the book is to highlight debates and issues important in teaching and learning at the tertiary level in universities, colleges and schools exploring issues that teachers and lecturers will need to address throughout their professional lives.
These issues surround acts of studentcentred learning, inquirybased learning, teachers' own practices in the classroom and, every bit as significant, the activities generated by their students in the process of learning.
The intention is to identify some of the debates relevant to teaching and learning, to challenge some of the orthodoxies within traditional forms of teaching and learning, and to suggest some solutions though current practice
over a wide context of activity.
