Stapleford presents an analysis of 6 months of discourse from the Learning Development in Higher Education Network(LDHEN) email list. This is used to identify language that is used to describe the professional status of learning development outside of the more formal definitions of professional identity. Stapleford discusses the concept of a shared professional culture, relevant to the ALDinHE values, and in doing so discusses parts of professional identity such as social emancipation.
