Why Partnership and Enquiry?
‘The scholarship of teaching and learning should result in a partnership where academics and students together engage in inquiry, not just about the disciplinary content of their learning but also about the teaching and learning process’
Brew, A (2006:120) Research and Teaching : Beyond the Divide Basingstoke: Palgrave MacMillan
Student as Consumer or Producer?
‘The idea of student as producer encourages the development of collaborative relations between student and academic for the production of knowledge.’
