Effective teaching sits at the heart of higher education’s mission to advance learning and discovery. But what are the key components that make up top-quality instruction? And how can these be achieved in different and often fast-evolving educational contexts?

It is this latter question that makes defining good teaching so difficult. So for this week’s podcast we spoke to two academics who have taught and researched teaching in widely varied settings to dig into the nuances of this most admirable of skills. 

Leon Tikly is a professor and global chair in education at the University of Bristol, UNESCO chair in inclusive, good quality education and co-director of the Centre for International and Comparative Education in the School of Education. 

Jason Lodge is associate professor of educational psychology and director of the learning, instruction and technology lab in the University of Queensland’s School of Education. He is an expert adviser to the OECD and the Australian National Task Force on AI in Education.
