In this article, we directly address five of the six questions presented by Misiaszek & Rodrigues, including the definition of 'sustainability' and 'development' in higher education teaching, the politics of teaching, and the responsibilities of teachers within the institution of higher education. We argue for contemplative inquiry and…

The current study provides detailed data that speaks to the nature of resistance to Flipped Learning pedagogy within a higher education context. A qualitative analysis of this data using the conceptual lens of Judith Butler's theory of performativity drew attention to a pervasive belief that teaching is and should be an embodied performative act.…

Beighton, Christian – Teaching in Higher Education, 2020
Despite existing work on the situated and sometimes alienating nature of academic writing practices, the implications of the specifically spatial nature of these practices continue to pose questions for teaching and learning in higher education. This paper addresses these questions through a study of the views and experiences of students and…

Clarence, Sherran – Teaching in Higher Education, 2016
Teaching and learning is a growing field of research and practice globally, and increasing investments are being made in developing academics as teachers. An inability to adequately account for disciplinary knowledge can lead to academic development inputs that are unable to fully address the needs of students, educators, or disciplines…

Wilkinson, L. C.; Wilkinson, M. D. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2023
This paper provides a critical interrogation of government-led reform of higher education (HE) in England. Its focus is marketisation, and in particular, the concepts of 'value for money' (VFM), teaching excellence, and students as educational consumers. Hitherto, research on VFM in HE has been largely quantitative in nature and primarily focussed…

Kinchin, Ian M. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2022
This article presents an ecological frame for reflection on teaching at university. It is suggested here that the process of professional reflection on practice can be better aligned with processes of institutional development by applying the adaptive cycle. This heuristic emerged from the scientific literature on ecosystem maintenance and has…

Schendel, Rebecca; McCowan, Tristan; Rolleston, Caine; Adu-Yeboah, Christine; Omingo, Mary; Tabulawa, Richard – Teaching in Higher Education, 2023
While critical thinking is widely regarded as a key outcome of higher education, research has shown that in practice it is only developed when certain conditions are in place, relating to the pedagogical approach, the nature of the curriculum and the level of challenge, amongst other factors. This article reports on findings from a four-year mixed…

Many pedagogies that seek to address the climate and nature emergency (CNE) promise hope and solutions for an idealized future. In this article, we suggest these pedagogies are rooted in the same modern/colonial system that created the CNE and other 'wicked' socio-ecological challenges in the first place, and thus they are not well-suited for…

In Mexico, as in other countries, several circumstances have converged to inform political decisions that have driven a series of reforms in higher education. The reforms are designed to improve the performance of higher education institutions and their adaptability to new economic and social scenarios, as well as foster changes to the way they…

Kinchin, Ian M. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2023
The shift towards an ecological university may be the key to achieving greater levels of social justice within higher education. This assumes that we could change the root metaphor of higher education--away from the current industrial model that is infused with neoliberal ideology and towards a more sustainable ecological model. This change…
