Turning points: Changes academics make to shape their working lives
We want to explore what it is like for academics who have been working in universities and other higher education settings over the last few years, and what kinds of changes you have made in your practices and approaches to your work. You will be asked to think about your experiences through the lens of text, imagery and music.
We address the following key research question
How do academics who work in a changing higher education environment articulate and represent
- the turning points that have caused them to change course and do something differently in their faculties, and
- the holding points, where the changes have taken hold?
Hear from lead researcher Mark Selkrig
