- W4383647163 abstract "In higher education, learning and teaching are often influenced by multiple learning traditions, and universities can benefit from seeking out the best approaches to learning and teaching from their own and other cultural traditions. But when there are major disruptions to educational practice in a culture, the gaps left in development of learning and teaching can take decades to overcome and it can be tempting to import practices wholesale from abroad. This chapter examines the ongoing process of academic development at a young university in a context that has experienced major disruptions to education over successive decades: the University of Burao in the Republic of Somaliland (an autonomous region of Somalia). As part of a Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) approach to academic development, we analyse the context of teaching and learning at the University of Burao (established 2004), both historically, in light of disruptions to education in Somaliland, and currently. Critical moments of disruption include religious influence, colonisation, independence and regime change, civil war, and reconstruction. Using data from focus group discussions with university staff, we explore ways forward in the development of a culturally authentic tertiary education that will foster both individual development and nation-building. Findings include the need to address a disconnect between cultural values and formal teaching and learning methods; parameters to consider when recontextualising contemporary Western educational practices for the Somaliland context, such as gender roles, religious beliefs, and funding; and opportunities to enhance academic staff development at UoB through reflection on teaching and learning in their local context. The research contributes to knowledge about the needs and experiences of developing universities in developing countries and has potential practical and policy implications both for other universities throughout the Somali region and for universities in Sub-Saharan Africa more broadly." @default.
