Higher Education Review Process

Striving for Quality: Learning, Teaching and Scholarship

purpose

The Ministerial discussion paper Higher Education at the Crossroads raised a wide range of issues and challenges facing the Australian higher education sector. It was intended to stimulate a public debate on the future directions for the sector. It is to be followed by a number of focused discussion papers, which will examine in greater detail some of the major challenges raised in the overview paper.

The discussion papers will be informed by perspectives that have been raised through the consultation and the submission process, and options for policy directions. They will identify some possible responses but not make recommendations. 

This paper, Striving for Quality: Learning, Teaching and Scholarship, explores issues in relation to teaching and learning. Other papers in the series will cover the financing of higher education; the governance and management of universities; the links between higher education and vocational education and training; diversity, specialisation and regional engagement and Indigenous involvement in higher education.
