Dear All,
Well, I've been lurking on this list for years now but finally Erik has
lured me out!
Just a brief introduction - as Barry requested all those years ago - I'm
deputy director of the Learning and Teaching Centre at University College
Worcester, UK, with special responsibility for the SEDA course here and for
the development of a progress file for undergraduate students. But, before
my recent elevation to staff development, I was a common or garden
historian. As such I led a small project as part of the History 2000 FDTL
project. History 2000 has a web site at Bath Spa University College and the
findings of all the projects undertaken under its auspices have just been
published as:
Booth, A and Hyland, P (eds) _The Practice of University History Teaching_
(MUP 2000)
There was an earlier book edited by the same authors
_History in Higher Education: New directions in teaching and learning_
(Blackwell, 1996)
History 2000 also organise an annual conference on history teaching and
learning in HE and are playing an important part in the new subject centre.
I hope this is helpful
Cheers
