The major aim of the ISL symposia is to provide a forum which brings
together those who are primarily researchers into learning in higher
education and those who are primarily practitioners concerned more
pragmatically with improving their practice, but from whichever
starting point, papers are only accepted if they take a sufficiently
scholarly, research-based approach.
The title of this symposium, "Theory, Research and Scholarship", is
intended to help bring those two communities together. What research
has been done to test or extend existing theories? And what emerging
theories/hypotheses might there be from the practical experience of
scholarly teachers? Papers which address these broad questions were
invited under the following more specific headings:
* Course and programme design
* Learning and teaching methods
* Assessment
* Skills development and lifelong learning
* Use of C&IT
* Learning environments
* Supporting Learners
* Meeting the challenge of diversity
* Implementing and managing change and innovation
* Theories of learning
