| Résumé: | This essay presents Moses, the protagonist of the biblical books of Exodus and Deuteronomy in the Hebrew Bible, as a playful but generative metaphor for current teaching practices and experiences in higher education, including my own.

It is a role that we also inhabit - standing, as it were, between our students and the knowledge of our discipline - and that we might consider further, particularly in terms of our responsibilities. |
