Distinguished Contribution to the Scholarship of Educational Development

Kathryn Sutherland is the winner of the inaugural ICED Distinguished Contribution to the Scholarship of Educational Development award for her article-length editorial ‘Holistic academic development: Is it time to think more broadly about the academic development project?’

This editorial-length article should be required reading for all academic developers so that they can gain insights into the possibilities of the field, and so that they don’t fall into the common habit of proselytizing enhancement only in teaching and learning at the expense of other areas of an academic’s responsibility. This paper also marks a departure in thinking about what an editorial can be; by introducing the articles in the issue and providing a broad-reaching literature review within which to locate these new contributions, the author sets a high bar for issues where the papers hang together meaningfully.
