The Present Professor Volume 3
Elizabeth A. Norell
At a time of crisis in higher education, as teachers struggle to find new ways to relate to, think about, and instruct students, this book holds a key. Implementing more inclusive pedagogies, Norell suggests, requires sorting out our own identities. In short, if we want to create spaces where students have the confidence, comfort, and psychological safety to learn and grow, we have to create spaces where we do, too. The Present Professor is dedicated to that proposition, and to helping educators build that transformational space.

A Teacher's Guide to Learning Student Names Volume 2
Michelle D. Miller
If teachers want an inclusive, engaging classroom, they must learn their students’ names. Sound advice, certainly, but rarely does it come with practical guidance—which is precisely what this book offers. Eschewing the random tips and mnemonic tricks that invariably fall short, Michelle D. Miller offers teachers a clear explanation of what is really going on when we learn a name, and a science-based approach for using this knowledge to pedagogical advantage.

Enhancing Research for Academicians in Higher Education
Andile Alfred Mdikana
Academics and postgraduate students in higher education often face challenges navigating the complex research landscape, from formulating a sound rationale and problem statement to developing a robust theoretical framework and publishing their work effectively. Many need help publishing their research and making informed decisions, and the current lack of assistance hinders their academic progress and contribution to knowledge production. Emerging academics often need more guidance in research supervision and postgraduate students may require support in writing quality research proposals and dissertations. Enhancing Research for Academicians in Higher Education offers a transformative solution to these challenges, providing a comprehensive guide to rethinking and reimagining research in higher education. Centralizing the research discourse through the concept of Africanization offers a unique, groundbreaking, and timely perspective. The book empowers academics and postgraduate students to develop their research profiles, explore various research approaches and paradigms, and understand research's philosophical and theoretical foundations.
