These awards recognise achievement in a number of areas and, in teaching and learning, include Teacher of the Year, Undergraduate Student of the Year, and PGT Student of the Year.<\/p>\n

The Teacher of the Year recognises an individual whose teaching during the past year has been outstanding, has demonstrated an ability to communicate effectively, and motivated students whilst showing a commitment to innovation and excellence in teaching.<\/p>\n

Schools can submit one nomination each for Teacher of the Year and one or two nominations for Undergraduate Student of the Year.<\/p>\n

To find out more, please contact Susan Rowe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This scheme supports innovation in teaching practice and\/or supporting the student experience.<\/p>\n

Colleagues can submit expressions of interest to secure complimentary resource and\/or funding from the Faculty Teaching, Learning and Student Experience Team to undertake new projects around three core priorities.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The development of distance learning with a focus on developing online CPD.<\/li>\n
  2. Innovation in teaching and assessment including the development of student digital skills.<\/li>\n
  3. Initiatives that enhance student experience.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Support from TLSE may be through initial consultation\/research to start a project, project management support, curriculum development support or technology-enhanced learning.<\/p>\n

    Projects should provide a strong communication strategy and clearly demonstrate the intended impact.<\/p>\n

    The deadline for applications is in late summer.<\/p>\n

    For more information, please visit HiT<\/a> or email Anna Verges<\/a>, eLearning Manager<\/p>\n
