Proposed title of the book:
Leadership in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education: Narratives of Academics' Personal Journeys

Description:
Whilst the path traversed by those seeking research leadership are well-defined and recognized, journey to leadership in learning and teaching (L&T) is often not widely discussed and/or recognized. The indicators of what might count as L&T leadership are very vague and how might individuals become leaders in L&T is not widely understood.

This edited book aims to bring together personal narratives of leadership journeys of academics working at various levels within higher education (either in universities or further education colleges). With an increased emphasis on L&T in higher education globally, the narratives will provide an insight into the contemporary challenges and issues faced by those academics seeking to focus on leadership in L&T. Although the academics contributing the narratives work in different national contexts, we anticipate taken together the first-hand authentic personal accounts of their leadership journeys will highlight commonalities and differences in their experiences. In particular, this edited volume intends:

*       To inspire other academics to consider leadership in learning and teaching as a valid academic recognition to strive for, in-spite of the counter-narratives widely prevalent against pedagogic expertise and pedagogic research.

*       To contribute to our collective understanding of leadership in L&T in the contemporary higher education context.

To ensure our selection of contributors does not pre-suppose what a leader in L&T is and constrain/limit how leadership in L&T is conceived, we are inviting chapter contributions from individuals who self-identify as (emerging or established) leaders in L&T. We anticipate that the chapter contributions will present first-hand, authentic and personal accounts of:

*       The challenges/issues faced in your L&T leadership journeys in HE.
*       The strategies and strengths you developed to overcome the challenges
*       Any theoretical frameworks/ ideologies that you could use to explain or inform your journey and current L&T leadership practices.
*       Any other issues that might be relevant to shaping your L&T leadership practice such educational/cultural systems; other contextual factors, such as discipline, country context, etc.

We welcome contributions from a variety of disciplinary contexts and also from regions that are less represented in the leadership literature such as from Africa, South America and Asia.
Deadlines:
If you are interested in submitting a book chapter proposal, please submit the following latest by Monday, 5th August 2019.
