The project team sought to devise a professional development strategy to support Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) professionals to develop their leadership capacity, thereby increasing their confidence about how their own knowledge, understandings and skills might contribute to the design and implementation of integrated services in ECEC. Integrated practice in the early years occurs in practice settings where disciplines of early childhood education and health care and community services, work together to support children and families.

The Teaching-Research Nexus: A Guide for Academics and Policy-makers in Higher Education
The University of Melbourne
2008
This excellent resource provides a summary of current thinking on the Teaching-Research Nexus (TRN) for academics, university staff, policy makers and students. The benefits of the TRN for students is presented and is supported with a large number of links to examples of TRN practice by discipline and year levels which should prove to be particularly useful for academics designing or revising existing courses or units. Links to strategy and policy making are also included. The site provides a framework for developing curricula that links teaching and research and is a useful collection of curriculum design ideas for academics. Nineteen concrete examples are presented. The resource may be used to aid the development or review of policies that promote (or hinder) the teaching-research nexus. There are materials supporting all levels of policy makers including government policy makers, those developing university wide policies at Deputy Vice-Chancellor level, and other policy leaders such as heads of departments or schools. In a short commentary the authors give advice to those academics early in their career or wanting to build their career. The main focus is on the advantages of being conscious of the RTN in their work as an academic. This is very much a personal view from the authors and contains only one reference.
