The education of bioinformatics, as an interdisciplinary science, can be negatively impacted by (1) incoming students attempting to negotiate complex concepts while lacking the educational scaffolding of the field's constituent disciplines while (2) taking breadth-first course requirements from (3) educators who may be lacking formal pedagogical…

Many students in higher education seek support with academic writing by engaging in literacy brokering, defined as third-party interventions in the creation of academic texts (Lillis & Curry, 2010). Such interventions may take many forms, from illicit practices such as purchasing a paper (see Newton & Lang, 2016) to innocuous practices…

This case study critically reflects on the impact of the Students as Partners in Learning initiative at the University of Stirling. The authors (two academic developers and four students) explore collectively how our partnership enabled us to reimagine a shared understanding and common learning and teaching purpose among our staff and students. We…

This book takes a look at the affordances of engaging second/foreign language students in educational projects that bridge the gap between the classroom and the museum.
