The Faculty is strongly focused on providing you with a rich and rewarding experience as an educator, and has identified four key objectives to do this:
Enhance the student experience
- Emphasis on improving the student experience is facilitated by the Education Centre, which has been established to ensure the highest quality teaching and learning outcomes for our students.
- To support the outcomes-based education we deliver, we have the Faculty's curriculum map and outcomes database, MappEdOut.
Improve teaching quality
- Emphasis on improving the quality of our teaching through initiatives like peer observation of teaching and the Teaching on the Run development program.
- We are establishing a teaching and learning culture, where you receive recognition through grants and awards for excellence in teaching.
Continue to build links between teaching and research
- Building on our research strength to ensure that our students are aware of and excited by Faculty staff research activities.
Use reliable and valid assessment methods
- Promoting reliable assessment practices in student-centred environments through continuous reviews and Faculty development activities.
