Chapter 22 begins by putting the discussion of applying for teaching awards, fellowships, and promotions in the context of the debate in higher education over the status of teaching and research into learning and teaching. Then, it unpacks the nature of these forms of writing, presents a flexible guide to the organization and composition of these applications, and discusses what to look out for to enhance your chances of success.
