A practical approach to amplifying
scholarly practice through digital

Sue Beckingham NTF and Professor Dawne Irving-Bell NTF
ANTF Symposium April 2023
A practical approach to amplifying scholarly practice
through digital technology
This presentation focuses on approaches individuals can employ to share their
teaching excellence in a way that celebrates their contribution, assures
recognition, and secures metrics that offer an indication of the works reach, value
and impact.
Taking into consideration the broad spectrum of work that can be defined as
‘scholarly practice’ e.g., research informed teaching, pedagogy in and beyond the
classroom, and the scholarship of learning and teaching, our presentation
illuminates several approaches and demonstrates how they can be used to share
these important outputs more widely.
Considering both the benefits and challenges, approaches to the effective
dissemination of scholarship will include the innovative use of digital technology,
highlight the ‘best’ social media platforms, and draw delegates attention to the
award-winning National Teaching Repository.
Sharing real-life examples of scholarly outputs in multiple multi-media based
formats (e.g., teaching resources, infographics and audio) we will demonstrate,
step-by-step, the dissemination journey that delegates can adopt themselves. In
addition to mapping the practical steps, the presentation will highlight how and
why sharing one’s scholarship is beneficial, but also why it is important to find and
try new ways of sharing.
