Abstract

Teaching in higher education can be considered an act of “becoming”. As academics, we are never complete, our disciplinary knowledge grows, new cohorts of students arrive, and societal issues shape our lens on life, and our teaching and learning. As teachers, we profess to our students the maxim that “every day is a school day”. Yet too often we are myopic in our own quest for alternative pedagogical practice. Should we not push at the boundaries of our disciplines signature pedagogies? Despite the advancement of student centered, constructivist pedagogies, the lectern, information transfer, and summative exams, continue to be too dominant in higher education.
