      abstract = {This book explores disciplinary teaching excellence  through a diverse range of student-staff partnership  research projects. Despite being a highly contested term,  teaching excellence is something that universities aspire  to and are expected to achieve. However, the editors and  contributors argue that not only are definitions of  excellence often broad and generic, but they lack nuanced  understandings of disciplinary excellence in higher  education. This book begins by unpacking some of these  contested definitions of teaching excellence, followed by a  series of co-authored chapters produced by students and  staff who have undertaken research projects where they  examine teaching excellence in their respective  disciplinary areas. These chapters demonstrate that  teaching excellence may be better understood as a process  of becoming that is achieved through partnership between  teachers and students. This book will be of interest and  value to students, educators, and policy-makers concerned  about teaching excellence, as well as scholars of  student-staff partnerships.
