Abstract:
After the first call for proposals by the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE, USDEd ) in 1987, many voices began calling for change in the system of rewarding teaching. One of the most notable among these voices was that of the late Ernest Boyer, who was president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. He and his colleagues suggested that if teaching was to take its rightful place in the reward system in higher education a new kind of scholarship was needed. In Boyer's Scholarship Reconsidered (1990) he accepted the fact that the scholarship of discovery was going to be the cornerstone of scholarship in research oriented universities.
