Series: Routledge Research in Higher Education

"In this book, first-hand accounts from academics and practitioners explore the concept of ""professional identity development"" in the context of higher education and provide guidance to develop and enhance professionalism.

The Development of Professional Identity in Higher Education presents a new understanding of identity development. Highlighting the importance of building positive identities in the development of a professional career, it argues for a reframing of the way academics think of themselves, suggesting the role of ""practitioner"" as one in which there is a continuous need to develop their professionalism as it connects to their daily practices and different identities. With contributions from a range of international authors, it demonstrates how professional development can change our beliefs and perceptions of the profession itself, whether it be through on-the-job instruction aimed at making teachers/researchers better, or through ""self-learning"" whereby teachers and researchers learn to develop and enhance their teaching and research competency through daily activities and self-analysis.

This book will be of great interest to researchers and graduate and postgraduate students in teacher education and professional development."
