The institute is dedicated to promoting better quality learning and teaching in Australian higher education. The Institute has $9.4 M to dedicate to three funding streams Leadership, Competitive Grants and Priority Projects in 2008. This is an exciting opportunity to develop learning and teaching skills across all UoW faculties and also promote greater collaboration of teaching resources and experiences between UoW and other higher education institutions.
