This report highlights the school’s commitment to scholarship, research and highlights our work during the 2019-2020 period. Centennial College uses Boyer’s Model of Scholarship (1990) to define scholarship activities. In his book, Scholarship Reconsidered: Priorities of the Professoriate, Boyer challenged prevailing views of “traditional”(or discovery-based) research as being of the most value and highest importance. Scholarship Reconsidered positioned interprofessional and interdisciplinary education and collaboration approaches, applied research and curricula, and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) as equally valued and essential across all fields of study and practice. Boyer’s framing of multiple, equally valued forms of scholarship has transformed the ways in which higher education teaching and research practitioners understand scholarship and research, and engage together as a community of learners and scholars. Our school is engaged in diverse scholarly activity. Typically this includes: active research, authorship, conference attendance and reports, conference presentations, curriculum and teaching innovation, exhibitions, filmmaking, creation in the visual and performing arts, higher education qualifications and writing for publications. Faculty and staff are also active in the community serving on professional and community boards and engaging in a range of other activities aimed at keeping the school and college up-to-date on subject area/discipline developments, as well as on teaching and learning. I would like to thank the School of Communications, Media, Arts and Design faculty, staff and management who have contributed to this new 2019-2020 Scholarly Activity Report.
