This document discusses the limitations of current frameworks for recognizing collaborative work in UK higher education. It notes that while frameworks acknowledge teams, the focus remains on individual achievement and reflection. This fails to recognize increasingly collaborative academic practice. The proposed "collaborative pathway" would allow teams to apply together for recognition based on both individual contributions and team achievements/dissemination. However, the HEA found it difficult to determine how this could meet accreditation criteria based on individual claims. There is a need to make collaborative work newly visible in frameworks and recognize the blend of individual and group contributions to teaching excellence.
