One of the many OER OMAC resources produced last year was 'The Insider's Guide to being a New Business Academic' http://research-archive.liv.ac.uk/3533/

Content was base on earlier BMAF Research into support needs for new academics and further developed through road-testing with new and early career academics attending new-to-teaching workshops. From feedback over the past year and especially at recent HEA NTT workshops for those in business education it has been found to be a very useful resource.

It is focused on business education, partly as part of the 'Open for Business' project and partly as we know people often look for something contextual, but unsurprisingly much of it is generic.

I would also recommend the companion Jargon Buster http://dspace.jorum.ac.uk/xmlui/handle/123456789/15474

You may be interested in this new book 'University Teaching in Focus' which is intended as a sort of primer for university teaching, but with a learning focus rather than a checklist.

It is edited in Australia but with contributions from many British celebrities.  It is out in Australia but British editions may be a month or two.

I support Debra's idea about establishing a searchable resource, so
colleagues can access it on a need to know basis. Being confronted initially
with 77 of anything sounds rather daunting.
