For students and staff at the University of Tasmania (UTAS), the quality of teaching & learning is of the utmost importance. The reason we are here is to work with students so they develop the knowledge, attitudes and skills needed for their future lives. This website is a resource for staff to support that work. There are a number of related sites for both staff and students that should be used in conjunction with this website (refer to the links on the right).
This website reflects the University's commitment to its students and its staff in the area of teaching & learning. It includes a range of information, policies, links, services and resources to support, improve and reward good teaching & learning.
