Education Policy Analysis Archives, 26(17). http://dx.doi.org/10.14507/epaa.26.3262 Abstract: Faculty members are fundamental for the development and success of higher education organizations, and building strong academic cadres is a major challenge, especially for research universities. While there are no fully-fledged research universities in Chile (Bernasconi, 2007), a few strive to get closer to that ideal by way of the professionalization their faculty. This study follows this process guided by the question “How do academic rules and guidelines in six research-oriented universities in Chile reflect the professionalization of the academic profession from 1967 to 2016?” Findings show that universities have converged in the structure they provide for their tenured and tenure- track faculty. The requirements to enter the “tenure track” career have become stricter over time, while adjunct faculty experience little regulation of their duties, governance rights, and benefits, even though they still constitute the highest proportion of faculty Journal website: http://epaa.asu.edu/ojs/ Manuscript received: 7/17/2017 Facebook: /EPAAA Revisions received: 1/3/2018 Twitter: @epaa_aape Accepted: 1/3/2018 Education Policy Analysis Archives Vol.

I taught formal lectures, small groups sessions and gave lab assistances, in Universities with different characteristics, both in France and in the US. Please find below a detailed overview of my teaching experiences, including a quick description of my previous environments and personal evolution. Those past experiences helped me to forge my own teaching philosophy, that I’d like to expose in a second moment. Past teaching activities Detailled overview I have been a Teaching assistant (TA) 1 in the IUT during my Ph.D. (2010–2013) at the LIPN (Université de Paris 13). I then was, on top of my post-doctoral position in the LACL (2014–2015), assistant2 at the U-PEC, at the Faculté des Sciences et technologie (FST). Finally, I am currently, on top of my post-doctoral appointment at the ASU (2015–current), an instructor in the Computer Science department. In all those situations, I volunteered to teach in those liberal, comprehensive and professional Universities. The table page 2 gives the detail of my service (±340 hours, spread over 9 semesters). I am this year teaching formal lectures and co-monitoring TAs as it is expected in a US university.

  • Academic Careers and the Valuation of Academics. a Discursive
    High Educ DOI 10.1007/s10734-017-0117-1 Academic careers and the valuation of academics. A discursive perspective on status categories and academic salaries in France as compared to the U.S., Germany and Great Britain Johannes Angermuller1,2 # The Author(s) 2017. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Academic careers are social processes which involve many members of large populations over long periods of time. This paper outlines a discursive perspective which looks into how academics are categorized in academic systems. From a discursive view, academic careers are organized by categories which can define who academics are (subjectivation) and what they are worth (valuation). The question of this paper is what institutional categorizations such as status and salaries can tell us about academic subject positions and their valuation. By comparing formal status systems and salary scales in France with those in the U.S., Great Britain and Germany, this paper reveals the constraints of institutional categorization systems on academic careers. Special attention is given to the French system of status categories which is relatively homogeneous and restricts the competitive valuation of academics between institutions. The comparison shows that academic systems such as the U.S. which are charac- terized by a high level of heterogeneity typically present more negotiation opportunities for the valuation of academics. From a discursive perspective, institutional categories, therefore, can reflect the ways in which academics are valuated in the inter-institutional job market, by national bureaucracies or in professional oligarchies.
