ABSTRACT
The first was concerned with revealing and describing the different ways three teachers
presented, varied and handled subject matter during three specific lectures in Management
Accounting in Higher Education with first year students. The second was to examine the
qualitatively different ways students experienced and apprehended the content of the lectures.
The third, the main objective of the study, was to investigate the possibility of developing a model
for observing, describing and analysing teaching skills in Higher Education. The investigation
involved three lecturers and fifteen first year undergraduate students. The empirical data
consisted of three subsequent video recorded lectures by the three lecturers, comprising eighteen
hours of video taped material. Five students from three different lecture groups were also
interviewed after each lecture making forty-five recorded and fully transcribed interviews. The
students´ experiences and understandings of the subject matter were investigated through a
problem-solving process where the content of the problems was related to the lectures.
KEYWORDS: Higher Education, Accounting, Management, Lecturers, Material, Experiences.
INTRODUCTION
The theoretical rationale for the analysis of the empirical material comes from the latest
development within phenomenographicresearch, the theory of variation. Differences between the
three teachers´ ways of presenting, varying and handling the same lecture content were found
and expressed in subject matter terms. The differences of the students´ experiences and
understanding also expressed in subject matter terms seemed to be systematically related to the
different ways in which the content of the lectures was handled by the teachers. The teacher
teaching objects and the students´ learning objects revealed clear similarities. A model of
description for observing and analysing teaching in Higher Education was developed.
