    Abstract

    The teaching partnership can be one means of promoting successful educational innovations that fulfil both short term goals of improved student learning and long term goals of lasting educational change. However, collaboration in itself does not guarantee success. The process through which the collaboration occurs seems to be crucial to the outcomes of the innovation. In this paper, predictions made about the ingredients necessary for successful innovations are informed, in particular, by work on educational change (Hargreaves, 2002) and on the scholarship of teaching in team (Benjamin, 2000). Issues related to collaborative teaching processes within tertiary institutions are exemplified by a case study involving a subject specialist in nursing and a member of a Learning Skills Unit.
