JCU recognises outstanding practice in teaching and scholarship in many ways, and the Citations for Outstanding Contributions to Student Learning is one such example.
Citations recognise and reward the diverse contributions that individuals and teams make to the quality of student learning in a specific area of responsibility over a sustained period. The JCU citations program is designed to prepare and support staff intending to apply for an Australian Awards for University Teaching (AAUT) Citation for Outstanding Contribution to Student Learning, offered by Universities Australia. JCU Citation Nominations will be assessed using the AAUT Citations Assessment Matrix.
The winners of these awards chosen by a panel of University teaching and learning stakeholders. Winners are recognised as leaders of learning and teaching at JCU and are invited to join the Community of Learning and Teaching Excellence. Winners will be announced at the Celebrating Excellence in Learning and Teaching at JCU: Teaching Excellence Awards on Thursday, 24 October 2024.
