Angelo, Director, University Teaching DevelopmentCentre, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand "Yet again, Maryellen Weimer has made a perfectly timedcontribution to the pursuit of excellence in teaching and learning.Enhancing Scholarly Work on Teaching and Learning does, indeed,shed clarifying light on the exciting new emphasis on scholarlyapproaches to teaching. In her distinctively conversational andclear style, Dr. Weimer maps out the nature of pedagogicalliterature how to read it and how to contribute to it. Asalways, Maryellen grounds her work in a wealth of experience thatshe so skillfully translates into practical suggestions forconstructive work. This book is the perfect next step in thejourney to understand the benefits of scholarly teaching." Gary Poole, Ph.D., Director, Centre for Teaching and AcademicGrowth Founding Director, Institute for the Scholarship of Teachingand Learning University of British Columbia "The revolution called the 'scholarship of teaching' was startedby Boyer, but this book puts his ideas and those of many others onthe tarmac of reality. It forcefully and convincingly answers thequestion, 'what's next?' I think it has the potential for layingthe foundation for a new discipline of practice comparable to whathas been achieved in other disciplines." Charles Walker, Professor of Psychology, St. BonaventureUniversity, Olean, NY, In this book, Maryellen Weimer provides an essential resource for anyone who is engaged in efforts to improve teaching in higher education. This comprehensive book draws on a wide array of sources to help practitioners build on the foundation laid by existing scholarly work on teaching and learning. Enhancing Scholarly Work on Teaching and Learning reviews previously published work on teaching and learning to better guide those engaged in pedagogical scholarship and to help develop a literature that meets the needs of faculty. Enhancing Scholarly Work on Teaching and Learning includes an analysis of the practitioner literature on teaching and learning in two main categories--the wisdom of scholarship and research scholarship. The first category uses the lens of experience to analyze instructional issues, and the second category employs more objective frames to assess instructional issues. The book explores four experiential approaches to teaching and learning (personal accounts of change, recommended-practices reports, recommended-content reports, and personal narratives and includes an analysis of the three most common research methods (quantitative investigation, qualitative studies, and descriptive research). Enhancing Scholarly Work on Teaching and Learning also includes information about other methods in addition to the main approaches., In this book, Maryellen Weimer provides an essential resource for anyone who is engaged in efforts to improve teaching in higher education.
