EDUIMHE › Supporting Quality Teaching in Higher Education
In the context of the sustained growth and diversification of higher education systems, society’s concerns about the quality of the education offered to the students are increasing. The goal of the OECD-IMHE study on Quality teaching was to highlight effective quality initiatives and to promote practices that may, in turn, help other institutions to improve the quality of their teaching and, thereby, the quality of their graduates. By participating in the project, the institutions were able to take part in an international review that allowed them to interact and share their own experience, gather information and thus examine the quality of their teaching.
The project was implemented in 2 phases: a first phase overviewing the institutional initiatives and policies aimed at enhancing the quality of teaching, and a second phase that explored in more detail the institutional experiences and approaches to quality teaching.
