Theorising Learning to Teach in Higher Education" provides both lecturers embarking on a career in higher education, and established members of staff, with the capacity to improve their teaching. The process of learning to teach, and the associated field of professional academic development for teaching, is absolutely central to higher education. Offering innovative alternatives to some of the dominant work on teaching theory, this volume explores three significant approaches in detail: critical and social realist, social practice and socio-material approaches which are divided into four sections: Sociomaterialism, Practice Theories, Critical and Social Realism, Crossover Perspectives. Readers will benefit from discussions on the role and place of theory in the process of learning to teach, whilst international case-studies demonstrate the kinds of insights and recommendations that could emanate from the three approaches examined, drawing together contributions from Europe, Africa and Australasia
