Teaching Matters is the University of Edinburgh’s website for debate about learning and teaching, for sharing ideas and approaches to teaching. This blog space showcases our academic colleagues’ successes, who are leading the way in delivering brilliant teaching.
After a prolific month in March, exploring topics around assessment and feedback, Teaching Matters is excited to present this month’s theme on Diversity and Inclusion.
