Vermunt – Higher Education Research and Development, 2024
Higher education (HE) is engaged in a variety of educational innovations, as well as professional development initiatives (PDIs) to support teachers in attaining the required expertise. To improve teacher professional learning and development (PLD) and innovation processes, it is important to understand whether, how and why different PLD practices…

Valentina C. Tassone; Piety Runhaar; Perry den Brok; Harm J. A. Biemans – Higher Education Research and Development, 2024
In response to challenges emerging in society, universities are searching for ways to innovate their courses through novel institutional educational policies and practices. Those efforts, however, are often not informed by knowledge about course innovation characteristics university-wide, and are often not supported by processes of reflection…

Martine Schophuizen; Aodhán Kelly; Caitlin Utama; Marcus Specht; Marco Kalz – Tertiary Education and Management, 2023
Leadership in higher can influence the structurally embedding of educational technologies in higher education institutions. However, HEIs are complex pluralistic organizational environments with loosely coupled systems, diffused power and goal ambiguity which makes governance of educational innovations a wicked problem in which they have to…

Veronica Ski-Berg; Sigrid Røyseng – International Journal of Music Education, 2024
Institutional change is being called for to renew higher music education (HME). But what institutional pressures, specifically, are driving these calls, and how are HME organisations responding to pressures to change? By turning to institutional theory, we lean on the concept of institutional isomorphism to shed light on how HME organisations may…

Beerkens, Maarja – Journal of Studies in International Education, 2023
About ten years ago, an innovative instrument was developed to promote internationalization in European higher education institutions--"a Certificate for Quality in Internationalization (Cequint)." The initiative fits well the contemporary governance philosophy that promotes voluntary instruments, an individualized approach, and an…

Jeannette Pols; Amade M'charek; Sonja Jerak-Zuiderent; Jonna Brenninkmeijer – Learning and Teaching: The International Journal of Higher Education in the Social Sciences, 2024
There are worries about the quality of scientific research, the validity of the knowledge it produces and the integrity of academics. What is lacking in the debate is what scientists have to say and what they do to create and safeguard what they see as 'good science'. Using Dutch academia as a case, we show that the academics' understandings of…

This paper presents a multi-faceted analytical Course Innovation Framework (CIF) that can help institutes of higher education analyze multiple aspects of course innovation. The CIF was constructed by integrating insights from literature, policy documentation and course-innovation practices at Wageningen University and Research in the Netherlands.…

Melissa Cain; Chris Campbell; Melissa Fanshawe – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2024
This article conceptualises how disruptions to conventional teaching models may lead to innovative practice. We have identified a gap in current knowledge around how innovations in higher education teaching and learning are initiated in times of crises. Disruptive Innovation Theory and Roger's Diffusion of Innovation Theory are used as lenses to…

Lecturers who are actively engaged in shaping their teaching and teaching practices demonstrate agency. Teacher agency has increasingly been described as a key factor in educational development at universities. Lecturers are expected to innovatively develop courses and continuously improve their teaching practices to respond to, for example,…

Kolster, Renze – European Journal of Higher Education, 2021
Excellence ('honours') programmes are a relatively new way in Dutch higher education institutions to serve the needs of talented and ambitious students, but may also serve as a testing ground for educational innovations. Using the structural ambidexterity concept, this paper investigates if and how excellence education functions as explorative…

Rymarzak, Malgorzata; den Heijer, Alexandra; Arkesteijn, Monique; Du Preez, Mathilda – Higher Education Quarterly, 2023
Campus decision makers are increasingly expected to adopt 'campus innovations' (affecting real estate and different facilities), not only from the market and demand-led (external campus innovations), but also developed by the university's own scientists (internal campus innovations). The adoption of the latter can be driven and hindered by many…

Robert Farrow; Paz Díez-Arcón – Open Praxis, 2024
Open educational resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that are either in the public domain or published on an open licence which permits various forms of redistribution, reuse and repurposing. Many organisations and higher education institutions around the world are using such resources, and anecdotally many believe this is…

Hambrock, Helga; de Villiers, Frelét – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2023
Since seamless learning (SL) is still a rather unknown concept in higher education many educators classify it under the same categories as mobile, blended, online or hybrid learning. The purpose of this study is firstly to clarify the historical evolvement of the seamless learning concept over the past decades and, to position the seamless…

Kitty Meijer; Liesbeth Baartman; Marjan Vermeulen; Elly de Bruijn – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2023
Teachers' assessment literacy affects the quality of assessments and is, therefore, an essential part of teachers' competence. Recent studies define assessment literacy as a dynamic, contextual and social construct, situated in practice and mediated by teachers' identity and conceptions of assessment. This study provides a further elaboration of…

Nowak, Tobias; Zuidema, Andrew – Journal of Political Science Education, 2021
This innovative teaching project brought students and professionals working at or with the European Union (EU) together via video-conferencing. The idea was that by having students talk to policymakers this would add to their understanding of the EU and allow them to practice their interview skills. These interviews would be incorporated in a…
