Supporting Scholarship

Scholarship is an important part of our work as academics at the university. This area of the website provides links to resources and organisations which can support your work in this area. Broadly defined, scholarship is:

• A deep knowledge base of the activity with which one is engaged
• An inquiry orientation which seeks to provide an evidence-informed approach to practice
• A critically reflective and enhancement-led approach to practice
• Peer review both internal and external to the institution
• Appropriate dissemination of practice both internal and external to the institution
