'Institute for feminist Theory and Research' Call for Papers. 

  Feminist Pedagogy. 
  One Day Conference: 

  Friday 28th January 2000 to be held at the Department of 
  Philosophy, University of Liverpool. 

  This conference will explore the theory and practice of 
  teaching and learning in Higher Education from a feminist 
  perspective.

  General areas of interest include: the RAE, the TQA, the 
  distinction between teaching and research, the 'normative 
  subject of educational practice', the relationship between 
  feminist theory and practice within the academy. 

  We particularly welcome papers that question definitions 
  of quality and good practice circulated in the Quality 
  Assurance procedures and papers which address the role and 
  function of feminist pedagogy within the academy. Papers 
  need not be of traditional form. 

  We intend to publish the conference proceedings. Please send 
  paper abstracts by 1st June 1999 to either of the conference 
  organisers. 

  Abstracts, in hard copy, of no more than 500 words should be 
  accompanied by a separate sheet detailing the following 
  information: description of content, name and contact 
  details, closing date -
