Educational practice captures a broad range of educative practices including:
A summative peer review report is used by the reviewee to evidence their achievements in preparation for promotion and probation.
The peer reviewee gathers and shares evidence of good educational practice for the nominated Teaching Capabilities.
The peer review report is shared with supervisors and/or panels.
Formative peer review is voluntary and aims to improve the quality of the reviewee’s educational practices. It provides a valuable opportunity for the reviewee to receive feedback from an experienced colleague on one dimension of educational practice.
The peer review report is for private use and is not shared.
Promotion processes are managed by the Division of People and Culture and supported by DLT.
In line with individual probation timelines.
