Teaching and Learning Conference 2019: From a centralised to a distributed approach for academic development

In 2016 a new distributed approach to academic development was established at Wrexham Glyndwr University. Prior to this teaching and learning was led by a traditional centralised academic development unit. With the arrival of a new senior management team an opportunity was identified to adopt a different approach to the development of teaching and learning using the principles of John Kotter’s dual operating system. Two years on the project is now fully embedded within the University and engages colleagues in transformational interdisciplinary projects that are accelerating the progress towards teaching and learning excellence.
