Why academics in an Australian university want teaching-focused roles
Differences in how teaching-focused roles are envisaged are evident in two main narratives, deficit-based and strength-based, that appear in the literature, often together. Few studies have explored academics’ motivation to change to teaching-focused roles. This paper examines 45 applications for 12-month secondments to teaching-focused roles at an Australian university received between 2019 and 2021. Summative content analysis was used to build …
Could ‘flipping’ professional development engage teaching academics? Perceptions of authenticity and relevance
Improving performance in learning and teaching through professional development (PD) of academic staff is a major goal of higher education institutions. However, gaps between strategy and implementation often hinder progress. Barriers include departmental cultures that do not value teaching, and insufficient attention to how academics perceive their PD needs. For decades, the significance of informal and social learning in the workplace has been …
The impact of an innovators group on the development of a culture of innovation in the use of educational technologies
Realising the full potential for educational technologies to improve the student experience is a challenge for higher education institutions. Although academic resistance is often blamed for poor dissemination of teaching technologies, recent literature has more satisfactorily framed the issue in terms of intransigent organisational culture. Features of higher education organisational culture that are conducive to innovation include senior execut…
Conceptualising and educating for global citizenship
Education for global citizenship is one of many of strategies adopted by higher education institutions. We share the findings of a qualitative study in one Australian university that examined the impact of a university goal to embed global citizenship. We found Bronfenbrenner’s ecological model to be a suitable framework to examine the process of developing global citizens at our institution. Our findings suggest that university strategies at the…

The prevalence of female sexual dysfunction (FSD), or in everyday notion, sexual dissatisfaction, among Malay women remains high, denoting that there are several influences shaping their experience of sex within marriage. This qualitative study identified the perceived effects of social factors in the development of sexual dysfunction among Malay women. Engaging a phenomenological framework, 26 in-depth face-to-face interviews were conducted amon…
Students positioned as global citizens in Australian and New Zealand universities
Higher education plays a critical role in producing society’s leaders by preparing graduates with the knowledge, capabilities and disposition to appreciate diversity and address social injustice. Many higher education institutions within and beyond Australia have aimed to internationalise their curricula to ensure students achieve capabilities that enable them to contribute to an evolving global knowledge economy. However, the inclusion of global…
Stillbirth in Lao PDR
BACKGROUND: Stillbirth is a major global concern. However, most research has been conducted in high-income countries. Understanding of the experience and management of stillbirth in low-middle income countries is needed. OBJECTIVE: This qualitative study explored health professionals' experiences of providing stillbirth care in the Lao People's Democratic Republic, a lower-middle-income country in South-East Asia. METHODS: In-depth interviews wer…
Resettlement challenges and dilemmas
In this paper, the perceptions of Bhutanese refugee women were explored in relation to their changing identity and their behavioural responses in the use of preventive health services following resettlement. Interviews with 30 Bhutanese refugee women in Melbourne revealed resettlement drivers, challenges and dilemmas. There was no option for women other than resettlement, women wanted to escape from bad conditions and hopes for a better future fo…
Decision influences and aftermath
Background Stillbirth, among the most distressing experiences an adult may face, is also a time when parents must decide whether an autopsy or other post‐mortem examinations will be performed on their infant. Autopsies can reveal information that might help explain stillbirth, yet little is known about how people make this difficult decision. Objectives This study examines the influences on decisions about autopsy after stillbirth among Australia…
