Abstract
This paper presents the cooperative analysis by a lecturer and an academic
development practitioner of a reflective journal dialogue over the 12 weeks of
teaching a postgraduate course. Through a retrospective analysis of the journal
the present paper explores the following issues: the framing of an inquiry; the
personal–professional nexus; and tensions in professional academic practice.
These issues encompass educational dilemmas for both the lecturer and the academic
development practitioner in the areas of assessment, judgement, evidence,
accountability, responsibility, authority and professionalism.
