Read, Barbara – Teaching in Higher Education, 2018
The global rise of 'neo-populism', culminating in the election of the populist Republican candidate Donald Trump to the US presidency, has been accompanied by a notable backlash and resistance to what has been categorised as governing/dominating 'elites', including HE academic institutions. Populist critiques centre on a perceived climate of…

Gilmore, Sarah; Anderson, Valerie – Teaching in Higher Education, 2016
This article contributes to contemporary debates about the significance of emotions within Higher Education.

Clegg, Sue – Teaching in Higher Education, 2016
The paper argues that powerful regional knowledge is necessary and possible and that there are historical precedents supporting these claims. Regional knowledge is being used in a double sense: the first Bernsteinian, the second in relation to knowledge generated outside the academy. Both are important if the debate is not to be confined solely to…

Bingham, Cecilie; Durán-Palma, Fernando – Teaching in Higher Education, 2014
This essay offers some reflections for the theory and practice of research supervision drawn from the field of employment relations.

Trowler, Paul – Teaching in Higher Education, 2015
This paper takes up issues raised in two articles by Nick Zepke and portrayed here as "the Zepke thesis". This thesis argues that the literature on, interest in and practices around student engagement in higher education have an elective affinity with neo-liberal ideology. At one level this paper counters many of the assertions that…

Mckendry, Stephanie; McKay, Gayle; Boyd, Vic; Andrew, Nicola – Teaching in Higher Education, 2012
Nursing and the construction industry arguably enjoy uneasy membership of the academy. As both move closer towards university-based learning, debates remain about where discipline-specific training should best be provided and the importance of softer, graduate skills for the professions. This paper contextualises that debate by describing both…

Peach, Sam – Teaching in Higher Education, 2010
This paper presents a philosophical approach to undergraduate curricula. The approach, informed by research, has been conceptualised as "socially critical vocationalism" (SCV). SCV is neither training nor pure traditional academic provision but an approach to curriculum that is academically defensible, practically relevant and socially…

Leathwood, Carole; Hey, Valerie – Teaching in Higher Education, 2009
This article engages with contemporary debates about the absence/presence of emotion in higher education. UK higher education has traditionally been constructed as an emotion-free zone, reflecting the dominance of Cartesian dualism with its rational/emotional, mind/body, male/female split. This construction has been challenged in recent years by…

Fanghanel, Joelle; Cousin, Glynis – Teaching in Higher Education, 2012
In this paper, we discuss the characteristics of a form of pedagogy capable of addressing differences across nations and cultures in ways that do not inflate differences. We suggest that those conceptual insights are particularly relevant to the teaching of "global citizenship". We have labelled this a "worldly" pedagogy,…

Skelton, Alan M. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2009
In this article, the author offers a personal view on the meaning of "teaching excellence" in higher education which makes connections with the particular historical moment people are living through--which has been variously described as "post-traditional", "postmodern", or "reflexive modernity". The author…

In drawing upon qualitative research with a…

This article talks about a meeting on "Higher Education in Recessionary Times" on March 24, 2010, which was hosted by the Society for Higher Education Research Policy Network.
