Publishing our learning from ITLR 2023

We have now published the outcomes report from the ITLR, as well as the reports for departments and clusters.

We would like to thank everybody who has been involved in ITLR 2023. It really has been a truly collaborative effort. As well as meeting our regulatory requirements, we have a comprehensive picture of quality and quality assurance across the University and a wealth of insight into good practice across our academic departments and professional services that can be shared and embedded going forward. 

There are a range of reports and outputs available - find out more below.

The ITLR 2023 Outcomes Report

The full Outcomes Report includes chapters on findings from reviews of academic departments and professional services clusters, the common themes, and bespoke themes, as well as our learning about student voice through the process. 

Panel Reports

Alongside the Outcomes Report, we have published the individual reports for academic departments and professional services clusters. As well as the full reports, there are also summaries and responses from the department or cluster.

Common Themes: Blended Learning, Interdisciplinary Learning, and Education for Sustainable Development

Read the chapters from the Outcomes Report focusing on our three institutional Common Themes and find out more about examples of good practice from across the University.

Bespoke Themes

Discover the themes that academic departments and professional services clusters highlighted in their reviews - including social inclusion, co-creation, learning communities and student experience, curriculum changes, and employability. 

Student Engagement

Students have been at the heart of this ITLR, from their co-creation of the review's design to their involvement in varied roles on panels. Read more about ways we can build our learnings in this area into future work in Education at Warwick.
