Short CV for Dr. Neil Haigh

Associate Professor Neil Haigh is currently a member of the Centre for Learning and Teaching at AUT University, Auckland, New Zealand. The centre provides professional development services for academic staff, in particular in relation to their teaching and to research on teaching. Services include workshops, consultation with individual teachers and teaching teams, a very wide range of resources on aspects of learning and teaching, and contributions to university committees that deal with policy and procedural matters. Previously he was the Director of the Teaching and Learning at the University of Waikato in Hamilton New Zealand. He provides university staff with support in relation to the on-going development of their research capabilities and their development as supervisors and examiners of postgraduate research. He also encourages and helps staff to undertake research on their own teaching and to ensure that the research that they undertake benefits their students’ learning. In addition he contributes to the development of institutional policies associated with teaching and research development.

His personal research focuses on students’ and teachers’ accounts of their everyday experience of learning and teaching. In particular, he is interested in ‘what goes on in the mind of teachers and students’. His longstanding contribution to higher education research in New Zealand was recently recognized by the award of the Tertiary Education Research in New Zealand Medal for Sustained Contribution to the Tertiary Education Research Environment in New Zealand

Workshop: Becoming a thoughtful practitioner through everyday reflection

If you want to become a successful practitioner (someone who can ‘practice’ an occupation, profession, or recreational activity very competently) a university is a good place to come for some of the knowledge and skills that you will need. A university gives you the opportunity to gain up-to-date knowledge that is supported by research and is widely accepted as reliable as well as useful. This is called ‘public general knowledge’. However, some of the knowledge that you will require won’t be available from lectures, books, articles, videos, internet sources etc. It is knowledge that you can only gain by being thoughtful about your everyday personal experiences (for example, of being a postgraduate research student): what you are seeing or noticing, what thoughts and feelings you are having. By being thoughtful in this way you will acquire another type of knowledge which is called ‘personal practical knowledge’. This is knowledge that you can only create by yourself – by being thoughtful. It is knowledge that is immediately relevant and useful to you.

In this workshop, Dr. Neil Haigh will talk about these different types of knowledge and why both are important to acquire throughout life. he will also talk with you about what is involved in ‘being thoughtful’ and how you can think or ‘reflect’ effectively on your everyday experiences to build up more personal practical knowledge. You will only be a successful practitioner if you have and continually add to your personal practical knowledge, as well as your public general knowledge.
