| This session will give participants critical insights into and an overview of a national collaborative research project in New Zealand through a brief account of developments from the pre-proposal stage to winning the grant, and the progress made to date. The presentation will contribute to the central themes of the conference relating to how the critical reflections and perspectives of academic developers and teachers inform and guide our practice, and possibly provide critical lessons and directions for higher education practice more generally. As a research team we were prompted by similar questions raised at this conference: What have we learned? What are the emerging trends? and How can we optimise future higher education outcomes? |
