Scholarship in Teaching
The University has established the Scholarship in Teaching Fund to support and enhance learning and teaching. The scholarship of teaching is the systematic and rigorous reflection on university learning and teaching by academic staff. It includes the development and evaluation of new approaches to teaching, critical discourse about learning and teaching, and analyses of professional and institutional cultures and frameworks as they bear on learning and teaching. The scholarship of teaching is relevant to all disciplines and professional fields within the University.
Applications are sought for Scholarship in Teaching Funds of up to $10,000 per project to undertake scholarly projects related to university learning and teaching.
