Learning and Teaching Enhancement Fund

In the academic year 2010/11, the HEA funded Learning and Teaching Enhancement projects in Northern Ireland with funding of up to £2,500 per project. The projects covered a range of themes including assessment, learning technology and education for sustainable development. Click here to view the briefing papers from these projects.

The HEA has collated the briefing papers from these projects, along with the briefing papers from the 2011/12 HEA Seminar Series and created a publication entitled ‘Enhancing learning and teaching in higher education in Northern Ireland’. Click here to download the report (PDF 819KB)
