Academic Development

The overarching goal of the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL) is to support academics in taking a scholarly approach to teaching, with scholarly teaching being characterised by reflective practice, a student-centred approach, and an open exchange of experiences, ideas and strategies. The AD team is a collaborative, high energy team committed to assisting academics to enhance their practice. We work within disciplines and schools and across Faculties to develop appropriate continuing academic development experiences.

AD offers course, workshops and resources that are tailored for academics working in a range of teaching and learning contexts.
