Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 093105043X, Paperback)

The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching

Ernest L. Boyer's Scholarship Reconsidered offers a new paradigm that recognizes the full range of scholarly activity by college and university faculty and questions the existence of a reward system that pushed faculty toward research and publication and away from teaching.
