- Description
- This paper examines the present and future roles of the property scholar. It proposes that the property scholar, either in academia or in industry, should be an exemplar for the property profession. Using the think-learn-act framework, the paper considers the role of the exemplar and highlights the rethinking of brain functionality, the findings on blended learning and student engagement as challenging activities of the exemplar. There is an illustration of a property learning case on investment valuation within a blended learning environment. The paper looks at the future role of the exemplar and includes proposals on the scholarly challenge, virtual learning environments, academic collaboration, market-based research and meaningful industry interaction. The paper concludes with an emphasis on enhanced communication and collaboration. This paper is an edited version of the keynote address presented at the 2010 PRRES conference in Wellington, New Zealand.
