    Higher Institution Engagement in Partisan Politics: Perspective of Bangladesh
    (International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, 2020-12) Shiddike, Mohammad Omar; Bockarie, Abu
    The purpose of this study was to explore the ways in which teacher engagement in partisan politics in Bangladesh higher education institutions have influenced their teaching as well as the learning of their students. The study also examined the teachers' perceptions of the benefits and challenges arising from their engagement in partisan politics. A case study methodology was adopted for this study with the goal of capturing each participants’ individuality and ensuring that in-depth information for each case was presented. One-on-one in-depth interviews were conducted directly with teachers in Bangladeshi higher institutions in order to explore their engagement in partisan politics. The study found that the higher institution teachers’ engagement in partisan politics took time away from their professional responsibilities and accountabilities, which had serious implications for their teaching and their students’ learning. In addition, while their engagement in partisan politics resulted in personal rewards for the teachers, it also undermined the status of teachers in general, as well as the reputation of higher learning institutions.

    Case Study Method in Human Resource Development: Reviewing the Research Literature
    (Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2020-03-26) Shiddike, Mohammad Omar; Rahman, Asif Ali
    This paper is written with a novice social science (management, education, public administration, public policy, and human resource development etc.) researcher in mind at the graduate or doctoral level. A case study research design has been made in this paper for a human resource development (HRD) project after extensively reviewing the research literature. This paper is useful for researchers who are looking for a case study research design plan based on a real-world example that can be adapted to their specific research. The paper is based on a research titled, “Faculty Engagement in Professional Development: A Bangladesh Case Study”. It explains a rationale for the use of case study method in an HRD project, followed by the research questions, the research methods and procedures. The paper also debates on sampling issues, data types, research instruments, data organization and cleaning, data analysis using and issues of validity and reliability. The paper concludes with a discussion on limitations and delimitations.

    Engaging Faculty in Professional Development: Lessons From Bangladesh
    (Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2019-09-23) Shiddike, Mohammad Omar; Rahman, Asif Ali
    Engagement can be defined as participation, involvement, and commitment (Harper & Quaye, 2015). This paper explains faculty engagement in professional development. Faculty engagement in professional development can be defined as faculty participation and involvement in formal and informal learning activities. These formal and informal activities focus on professionalism that might include exercises leading to the development of knowledge, skills, abilities, values, and self-awareness. Some examples of these formal and informal learning activities are classroom teaching, curriculum and instruction development, training, consulting, faculty/student interactions, workshops/conferences, and academic publications etc. Faculty engagement in professional development incorporates the total sum of formal and informal learning or continuous learning throughout one’s career (Broad & Evans, 2006; Capps, Crawford, & Constas, 2012). Since professional development includes faculty engagement, the paper explores how university faculty professionally develop themselves through engagement.

    This paper is written with a novice social sciences researcher (management, education, public administration, public policy, and human resource development etc.) in mind at the graduate or doctoral level. A mixed methods research design has been made in this paper for a human resource development (HRD) project after extensively reviewing the research literature. This paper is useful for researchers who are looking for a mixed methods research design plan based on a real-world example that can be adapted to their specific research. The paper is based on a research titled, “Transfer of Training: A mixed methods research”. It explains a rationale for the use of mixed methods in an HRD project, followed by the research questions, the research methods and procedures. The paper also debates on sampling and data integration issues, data types, research instruments, data organization and cleaning, data analysis using software such as SPSS and NVIVO and issues of validity and reliability. The paper concludes with a discussion on limitations and delimitations.
