Locate and examine a published source of literature on teaching, learning or curriculum within - or closely allied to - your own disciplinary area.

• You may already know and even have such literature - if so, use that
• If you do not, study the following list on the web site: http://www.lgu.ac.uk/deliberations/journals/index.cgi and locate some items in your area or close to it, and use one or other of them.
• Sample a few articles that look interesting and try to identify the stances towards student learning adopted by the authors.
• Read the standard introductory pages to the journals where their intentions are described and the kinds of articles they welcome are mentioned; scan these for evidence of the editors' stances towards student learning.
