All projects supported by Teaching Innovation Grant funding are expected to demonstrate a commitment to fostering inclusive, diverse, and exceptional educational experiences that support UQ students at every stage of their journey and integrate key skills and attributes into our students' education.
In 2025, Priority Areas are aligned with the Lead through Learning Strategy (2025 – 2027) and Learning and Student Experience Roadmap, with particular interest in projects that explore:
Transformative curricula, pedagogies and assessment that emphasise maintaining the integrity of the learning process and ensuring that academic standards are upheld through secure and credible assessment practices.
Preparing students for responsible AI use. Equipping students with ethical, practical AI skills they can use in their studies, careers, and communities, and preparing them to lead and shape the future of AI integration in their fields.
Developing high impact and effective learning experiences using accessible and ethical AI systems.
Transformative and/or immersive learning experiences with sustainable, scalable impact that embed Indigenous perspectives and pedagogies and are guided by the principles of Country, Relationships, Respect, Cultural Capability, Reciprocity, Truth, and Benefits.
Project Impact
Teaching Innovation Grants are intended to explore and develop new ways of teaching; they may bring about substantial change in learning and teaching for students and staff at UQ.
Applicants must plan for and outline the expected impact or transfer of their project’s interventions in the application. A strong application will make a compelling case about anticipated project impact at UQ, may consider impact that extends beyond the University, and will provide a planned approach for the translation of project outcomes.
