Improving the quality of teaching in higher education is an important priority for Australian universities. There has been rapid growth in the number of training programs for university teachers. This study will directly support these efforts. It will investigate the effectiveness of the diverse approaches to teaching and learning traditionally adopted within different fields of study?across the sciences, the arts, the humanities and the professions. The findings will be used to develop new training programs for university teachers that are tailored towards best practice in the particular areas of knowledge in which staff are teaching. Enhanced training of university teachers will lead to better teaching and better student outcomes.

提高高等教育教学质量是澳大利亚大学的重要优先事项。高校教师培训项目数量快速增长。这项研究将直接支持这些努力。它将调查传统上在不同研究领域--科学、艺术、人文和职业--采用的不同教学方法的有效性。这些发现将被用于为大学教师制定新的培训计划，以适应教职员工所在特定知识领域的最佳实践。加强对大学教师的培训将带来更好的教学和更好的学生成绩。
