The third space projects under investigation range from increasing the academic research visibility and commercialisation of a research solution to expanding the educational choices for students in one geographical region and developing a research culture in one international campus. The findings present practical approaches to strengthening collegiality and professional partnering, challenging the reader to reflect on potential strategies that will apply to their own work environments. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book will be a useful resource for researchers in higher education, particularly those interested in the third space theory and practice, university collaboration, collaborative capital, and impacts of diversification of university staff roles and identities.　\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Natalia Veles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032195096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032195094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Natalia Veles","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45980933488895,"sku":"9781032195094","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_208e4d82-bd64-4cab-b80e-51662e7c0dd5.jpg?v=1722417281","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/optimising-the-third-space-in-natalia-veles-9781032195094","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
