1. INTRODUCTION

This is my first introduction to the research report as HEDC's Head of Department. 2019 was another highly successful year for research productivity, even though we had all emerged from an intense PBRF preparation period in the previous year. I extend my appreciation to all academic and professional staff for their forbearance, hard work and their dedication to our research mission throughout this time. HEDC's outstanding performance in the previous PBRF was attributed to the dedicated leadership of Professor Tony Harland our previous HoD, and the hard work of all academic and professional staff.

In terms of specific outputs, in 2019 HEDC published 23 journal articles as well as 17 articles published online first (a total of 40 journal publications). Another highlight was the publication of two major edited books and HEDC's first Visiting Scholars, Professor Gina Wisker from the University of Brighton, UK, and Professor Gordon Stubley from the University of Waterloo, Canada.

Reiterating the position established by our previous HoD, our PhD, Masters and all other postgraduate students are the life-blood of the department. We highly value the fact that so many capable scholars wish to study our subject of higher education with us and go on to successful careers. We remain a research-led academic development department, strongly dedicated to serving our University, New Zealand, and the world.

I look forward to another productive research outcomes at the end of 2020.

11. HEDC RESEARCH SEMINARS

In 2019 we continued with the Research Tuesday sessions, designed to strengthen the research

culture and community in HEDC. Starting in March, every Tuesday from 1-2 was an HEDC research

event for all HEDC researchers, academic and postgraduate. Each session was led by one or more

academics or postgraduates, who chose what sort of research event it will be:

· Work in progress: briefly share your planned research, or what you have done so far, and get

some feedback

· Seminar: present the results of some research and invite discussion

· Journal club: Before the session ask participants to read a topical journal article and discuss in

the session

· Feedback on writing: Share some writing for publication with participants before the session

and ask for feedback during the session

· Discussion on an important issue in HE: for example, the purpose of a University, retention,

academic well-being…

· Discussion on an important aspect of the research process in HE: for example, writing,

interviewing, applying for grants

Every member of HEDC presented at least one Research Tuesday event in 2019, and a large proportion

of the staff and students attended every week. This is a valued venue for sharing work in progress,

getting useful feedback on our research, and engaging in critical discussions.
