Pete Boyd: Higher Education (including initial teacher education)
My current collaborative projects with higher education teachers and researchers are centred on developing practice through collective leadership at programme level with recent focus on enhancing assessment and feedback and on strengthening the ‘research teaching knowledge exchange nexus’ meaning building links between taught programmes and the research and consultancy work of academics. I am interested in consultancy work in academic development including international work.
My publications related to academic development in higher education are below, including several with open access links:
