Editorial Introduction
This is the 2022 volume in the annual series Theory and Method in Higher Education Research, which we launched in 2013 in the belief that there was a need to provide a forum specifically for higher education researchers to discuss issues of theory and method.
The contributions in this volume lean more toward theory than method. Thus, we have Lorenzo considering regionalism, Warren examining transnational history, Woo discussing authoritarian policymaking, Le on academic work values, Shahsavari categorizing the functional missions of the university, and Crossouard and Oprandi exploring formative assessment in the context of decolonization.
More methodological contributions include those of Dusi on alternative approaches to thematic analysis, Tight on the underuse of observational methods, Haas considering the application of sequence analysis, and Taylor on the practice of online focus groups.
As in previous years, the volume displays an international authorship, with contributions from Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Iran, and the United Kingdom.
Anyone interested in contributing a chapter to a future volume is invited to get in touch with either, but preferably both, of the editors.
