Here's a snip: "Further, the survey found that the "scholarship of teaching" ideas of Ernest L. Boyer -- in which colleges would see research and publication related to pedagogy or teaching as "counting" -- has not been embraced by a majority of departments in any sector, and by relatively few at doctoral institutions. Asked if they agreed that "teaching publications and substantive publications are equal" in tenure reviews evaluating research, only 11 percent of chairs at doctoral universities agreed. (The figures were 32 percent for master's institutions and 43 percent for bachelor's institutions)." Chris -- Christopher D.
