Title: Learning & Teaching

Description: The University of Melbourne provides students with a rich and varied learning experience characterised by an atmosphere of intellectual excitement, an intensive research culture, a commitment to global engagement, clear academic expectations and standards, and a vibrant and exciting social context. In addition, the University encourages its students to take responsibility for their own learning, in order to create dynamic partnerships with peers, teachers and researchers. Students can contribute to the creation and maintenance of an effective learning experience by: collaborating with other students in learning; contributing to the University community and participating in life beyond the classroom; developing a capacity for tolerating complexity and, where appropriate, ambiguity; respecting the viewpoints of others; being reflective, creative, open-minded and receptive to new ideas; actively participating in discussion and debate; seeking support and guidance from staff when necessary; accepting the responsibility to move towards intellectual independence; being familiar with the Graduate Attributes and consciously striving to acquire them; respecting and complying with the conventions of academic scholarship, especially with regard to the authorship of ideas; and providing considered feedback to the University and its staff on the quality of teaching and University services. The University of Melbourne fosters excellence in its teaching staff by providing an international scholarly community which values the qualities of intellectual rigour, honesty and commitment paired with a research-intensive environment. It recognises and rewards teaching endeavour through a recognised system of academic promotion, encourages innovation and collaboration through public recognition in the form of awards, and ensures quality through rigorous feedback and assessment. The University also participates in external quality assurance measures to ensure that excellence is offered in all areas of education. The Centre for the Study of Higher Education provides resources for teaching staff, as well as qualifications in university teaching. The Melbourne School of Graduate Research supports supervisors in developing research candidates to their full potential.
