TEACHING AND
LEARNING
AWARDS 2002
THE high quality of teaching
and learning at the
University of Queensland has
again been highlighted with
our continued success at the
Australian Awards for
University Teaching and through the University’s own
awards for teaching excellence and research
supervision. I want to take this opportunity to
congratulate our winners and finalists and thank them
for their commitment and their contribution to the high
standards of teaching at UQ.
This final issue of UQ News for 2002 is dedicated to
teaching and learning excellence. It highlights our
award recipients and other innovative teaching and
learning projects that are helping to keep our
University at the cutting edge of quality and creativity
in these areas. Many of these projects were spotlighted
during the inaugural UQ Teaching and Learning Week in
November through a series of events and publicity.
The University of Queensland provides a great example
of how world-class research also strengthens and
enhances the quality of teaching within a university.
I am confident we will continue to raise the bar on all
areas of university activity and set new standards in
teaching and learning excellence.
I would like to wish the staff and students of UQ and all
UQ News readers a safe and happy Christmas. Thankyou
for your support during this year and I am sure we
can look forward to even greater success in 2003
