FILHO, José Camilo dos Santos  y  DIAS, Carmen Lúcia. Academic profession and scholarship of teaching: new look at the multiple functions of university professor. Avaliação [online]. 2016, vol.21, n.3, pp.837-857. ISSN 1982-5765.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1414-40772016000300010.

The recognition of teaching work quality in activities not directly related to research and the growing society requirement for a more relevant contribution of the university to the solution of its urgent problems led to the search for overcoming the traditional understanding of scholarship. In this paper first the classical understanding of scholarship and the expansion proposals of this concept by some specialists are presented. Then the concept of scholarship of teaching and its basic components are analyzed. Finally, some proposals and initiatives introduced by universities for consolidating the scholarship of teaching are cited, making explicit its multiple perspectives and concrete forms of stimulus to its practical implementation.

Palabras clave : Academic profession; Scholarship of teaching; University professor; University teaching; Academic work.
