Boyer (1997) expanded the notion of "scholarship" to encompass a broader understanding of what it means to be an academic.

Boyer (1997) highlights four components of a professor's scholarly engagement:

  • discovery - creating knowledge through traditional research
  • integration - apply and utilize knowledge across disciplines
  • application - address social problems through the application of research
  • teaching - apply scholarly rigor to the practice of teaching

For an overview of each of these forms of scholarships, see the attached article by Marta Nibert.

Very interesting article.  I had not run across this model before, but it makes a lot of sense.  The that is summed up in the conclusion is that like in most things in life it is all about having and maintaining a balanced focus on one's objectives to better the organization and its individuals that support it.
