There is a tendency for the Arts to under-value its distinctive disciplinary practices around learning and teaching, but we should be more confident in sharing our practical and creative practices. The arrival of the Teaching Excellence Framework is bringing a greater focus on the need for excellent teaching in universities.

But what is excellent teaching? And what does it mean in the context of the Arts?

We would love you to tell us what excellent teaching looks like in your discipline so that we can share your examples across the university and beyond. The Creative Education Network is here to champion your successes and to connect tutors with creative approaches to education.

Please add your stories in the comments below, or if you would prefer please email them to creatednet@uca.ac.uk.

Thank you in advance for your time, let’s show the world what excellence looks like in Arts education!
