Writing about learning and teaching in higher education: A selected bibliography

A new bibliography has been added to the collection of bibliographies and other resources on our website (www.mickhealey.co.uk). We hope that you will find it useful. It includes approximately 600 references. Please pass this message on to colleagues who may be interested.

The bibliography includes references to publications focused on writing about learning and teaching in formal higher education contexts, writing about human experience more generally (which has implications for writing about learning and teaching), and examples of the practice of writing about learning and teaching illustrating different genres. It was developed while we were preparing Healey, Matthews and Cook-Sather (2019; 2020), both of which are/will be available as open access publications. Please treat it as a taster for our book which will be published in the summer.

It is one of a series of bibliographies that were begun in 2005:
1 Active learning and learning styles: a selected bibliography
2 Discipline based approaches to supporting learning and teaching: a selected bibliography
3 Linking research and teaching: a selected bibliography
4 Pedagogic research and development: a selected bibliography
5 The scholarship of teaching and learning: a selected bibliography
6 The scholarship of engagement: a selected bibliography
7 Dissertations and capstone projects: a selected bibliography
8 Students as partners and change agents: a selected bibliography
