Ultimately…
“To teach well we must know ourselves,
be authentic and inspire others with our
passion and continued desire to learn.
We must recognise when work is done
well. We must support each other,
sharing information and working
collegiately and collaboratively”.

Ten principles of effective teaching

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Clarity in learning outcomes right through to assessment.
  • #5 These need to be instrinsically linked. A student focussing on the assessment isn’t at the detriment of their learning.
