Five exciting, future-focussed projects have earned Teaching Development scholarships for University of Canterbury staff.
The prestigious scholarships reward recipients with both time and funding to explore a teaching-related project they are interested in.
“These projects will all add to our already high standard of teaching with new innovations and solutions that will continue to improve the experience of our students and teaching staff,” Tumu Tuarua Akoranga | Deputy Vice-Chancellor Academic Catherine Moran says.
The scholarships support the Distributed Leadership in Teaching Programme, which encourages and facilitates teaching staff to become leaders in the teaching community.
The programme is one of the ways the University of Canterbury develops capability in teaching practice and encourages solutions to teaching and assessment challenges.
