Teaching Excellence Award Winners 2021-22
Published: 29 June 2022
The University of Glasgow recognises the winners of the 2021-22 Teaching Excellence Awards
The University’s Teaching Excellence Awards recognise and celebrate members of staff whose teaching and contribution to learning is of a particularly high standard. As such, they are an indicator of esteem based on peer recognition of excellence in relation to teaching, and the nomination process helps to encourage a culture of collegiality. There are two levels of award: College/Service Awards, from which up to two nominees per College may be considered for a University level award.
An informal Teaching Excellence Network has been formed of all Teaching Excellence Award winners since 2005. Members of the Network have been invited to contribute their skills and expertise to a range of activities, such as training, informal mentoring, peer review and, on a consultative basis, to Learning & Teaching Committee business and strategy meetings.
This year’s Panel was chaired by Professor Wendy Anderson, Assistant Vice Principal (Learning & Teaching). Wendy and the other panel members, including our external and University Court assessors, were very impressed with the quality of the applications. Wendy said “The panel were delighted to have been able to recognise the achievements of these colleagues for the very high quality of the work that they have done to support students, particularly during the pandemic”.
