Title : Understanding teaching excellence in higher education : towards a critical approach Material Type: printed text Authors: Alan Skelton, Author Publisher: London, New York : Routledge Publication Date: 2005 Series: Key issues in higher education Pagination: vi, 193 p. Layout: ill. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-415-33328-3 General note: Includes bibliographical references (p. [179]-190) and index Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: College teaching - Evaluation Class number: 378.1 Abstract: What makes a university teacher "excellent?"As debates rage around whether it is down to subject-knowledge, communication skills, taking a research-led approach or being a technological whiz, this book identifies and examines interpretations of teaching excellence and helps the reader to develop their own understanding and practice of teaching in light of the recently researched evidence.
Using as its central case study the practice of the UK's most "excellent" university teachers, as awarded by the National Teaching Fellowship Scheme, this book features insightful interviews with all the award winners who teach across a variety of subject areas, and establishes the key skills and strategies which lead to their public accolade. As similar schemes exist around the world, particularly the USA, Canada, Australia and South Africa, the book offers a comparative analysis of these schemes and helps the reader to locate national policies and practices within the growing worldwide "excellence movement" in higher education.
Lecturers in any higher education establishment who are passionate about raising the standards of their teaching will find much in this book to inform and enthuse them. This book will also make an exceptional companion for students on postgraduate, diploma and masters courses.Contents note: Introduction; A Critical Framework; Awards for Teachers; Institutions and Teaching Excellence; The Contribution of Subject Disciplines; Local Knowledge? ?Ordinary?

Title : Rethinking assessment in higher education : learning for the longer term Material Type: printed text Authors: David Boud, Editor ; Nancy Falchikov, Editor Publisher: London, New York : Routledge Publication Date: 2007 Pagination: vi, 206 p. Size: 23 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-415-39779-7 General note: Includes bibliographical references and index Languages : English (eng) Descriptors: Educational tests and measurements Class number: 378.1 Abstract: Assessment is a value-laden activity surrounded by debates about academic standards, preparing students for employment, measuring quality and providing incentives. There is substantial evidence that assessment, rather than teaching, has the major influence on students’ learning. It directs attention to what is important and acts as an incentive for study.
This book revisits assessment in higher education, examining it from the point of view of what assessment does and can do and argues that assessment should be seen as an act of informing judgement and proposes a way of integrating teaching, learning and assessment to better prepare students for a lifetime of learning. It is essential reading for practitioners and policy makers in higher education institutions in different countries, as well as for educational development and institutional research practitioners.Contents note: Assessment for the longer term (David Boud and Nancy Falchikov); Reframing assessment as if learning was important (David Boud); Assessment in higher education: an impossible mission?

Title : Islam and the everyday world : public policy dilemmas Material Type: printed text Authors: Sohrab Behdad, Editor ; Farhad Nomani, Editor Publisher: London, New York : Routledge Publication Date: 2007 Pagination: x, 240 p. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-415-45305-9 General note: Includes bibliographical references and index Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Islamic law
Public policyClass number: 340.59 Abstract: This is a new examination of how Shari'a law affects public policy both theoretically and in practice, across a wide range of public policy areas, including for example, human rights and family law. The process by which public policy is decided - through elections, debates, political processes, and political discourse - has an additional dimension in the Islamic world. This is because Shari'a (divine law) has a great deal to say on many mundane matters of everyday life and must be taken into account in matters of public policy. In addition, matters are complicated further by the fact that there are differing interpretations of the Shari'a and how it should be applied to contemporary social issues. Written by leading experts in their field, this is the first comprehensive single volume analysis of Islam and public policy in the English language and offers further understanding of Islam and its wider social and political implications. Contents note: Islam, revivalism and public policy; Islamism and economics : policy prescriptions for a free society Timur Koran; Islam and human rights policy; Muslim family law : articulating gender, class and the state; Islam and labor law : some precepts and examples; Commercial law : the conflict in shari'a and secular law; Zakat, taxes and public finance in Islam; The dilemma of riba-free banking in Islamic public; Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=13501 Hold
