Editor’s Preface:
A notable strength of the Academic Development field is its commitment to
academics’ empowerment toward more learning-centred and inclusive teaching
learning practices. Working towards constructive synergies and collaborations,
we can overcome the challenges faced by all stakeholders in Higher Education
and by prioritising reflection through participatory academic development
contexts our communities (communities of practice, discourse communities
and communities of learning) will grow past inequalities and thrive.
In line with this, the first international conference on Higher education
pedagogy and Faculty Development at the University of Crete Teaching and
Learning Center was held in Rethymnon, Greece on 15-17 September, 2023. It
featured 80 presentations from 22 International Universities and 13 different
countries. This volume includes 22 selected papers which draw on practical
and theoretical explorations of Academic Development in local contexts.
This book is divided in five sections so as to showcase a variety of academic
development approaches and perspectives. Section one provides a snapshot
of debates appearing in the field regarding academic development processes
Editor’s Preface
like peer observation, micro teaching and reflective and participatory
communities of learning and practice through MOOCs. Section two continues
to give us a concise account of active learning approaches that involve student
engagement strategies and enhance student agency. Section three focuses on
student perspectives and attitudes following student-centred interventions.
Section four focuses on academics’ views and attitudes, and shares useful
insights regarding academics’ needs in terms of student-centred and inclusive
practices. Section five sheds light on digital innovations and virtual
technologies fostering learning centred approaches in typical and atypical
learning contexts.
Issues visited at the conference were not limited to the ones presented herein,
but they are indicative of academics’ vision and endeavours towards improving
higher education learning environments and increasing opportunities for
student success.
