I have just been advised that I have won the David White Award for Teaching Excellence in Science, Health, Agriculture and Veterinary Science.
“Award recipients are acknowledged for their outstanding achievements across the various dimensions of teaching excellence: approaches to teaching that influence, motivate and inspire students to learn; development of curricula and resources that reflect a command of the field; approaches to assessment and feedback that foster independent learning; respect and support for the development of students as individuals; and scholarly activities that have influenced and enhanced learning and teaching.”
The University has also nominated me for the National Awards for University Teaching: Citation for Outstanding Contribution to Student Learning, and Award for Teaching Excellence. Fingers crossed.
