This two-volume book addresses the need for continuous professional development among educators in higher education to meet contemporary challenges and enhance teaching quality, grounded in the evolving demands of the educational landscape.Building on Volume 1’s focus on the concepts, models and frameworks involved in the pedagogical competence development of academicians in higher education, this second volume highlights pedagogical growth in specific or challenging contexts, emphasizing reflective practice, digital shifts, and the unique realities of educators in under-resourced, transitional, or technologically evolving environments. Organised into two parts, chapters in the first section explore self-reflection, narrative inquiry, and experiential learning as vehicles for cultivating pedagogical competence. They also reveal how professional identity evolves through emotional awareness, classroom engagement, and cyclical self-assessment — forming the reflective heart of higher education teaching. Section Two advances a forward-looking vision of higher education pedagogy, highlighting collaboration, co-creation, and critical dialogue as cornerstones of professional competence renewal. Moving away from theory, this book reflects on the practicalities and challenges of developing professional pedagogical competence in the real-world.An indispensable resource for educators in higher education, these two volumes address the critical need for continuous professional development, reflective practice and collaboration, for advancing pedagogical professionalism and ensuring that higher education remains responsive to the needs of students and society.
