| Summary |
This book is the culmination of three years' work by teams from eight institutions in five different European and North American countries interested in developing and disseminating a more profound understanding of university-level pedagogy. The purpose of the project was, first, to conceptualize what an internationally-appropriate, formal academic program for faculty development in higher education might look like, taking into account differing national contexts in Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France and Switzerland. The second purpose was to define a common curriculum, or core course with commo. |
