A funded two phase design project across 4 universities to develop, implement and systematically embed a culture of Peer Review of Teaching. The focus is on:
1. Promotion of workplace capacity through distributive leadership
2. Strategic improvement of teaching through peer review of teaching
3. Leadership development for champions and strategic mentors
4. Community of practice development5. Establishment of multi-level stakeholder support

There is an emergent view in Australian higher education that peer review of teaching is an effective strategy for academic development(Barnard, et al, 2011; Bell, 2001; MacKinnon, 2001; Magin, 1998)
The time is right @ QUT – review to teaching evaluation methodology (ReFrame); changes to academic staff mix; increasing emphasis on quality of teaching in higher education; increasing emphasis on research and scholarship in teaching

◦ public (‘community property’)◦ open to critique and evaluation◦ in a form that others can build on◦ involves inquiry and investigation, particularly
concerning student learningand:◦ be about effective learning; encompassing both
teacher & student engagement◦ about advancing excellence in research◦ driven by informed teaching – e.g. evidence from
student learning, students, self, peers ◦ linked to peer collaboration & personal reflection

Early Career – wanting to ‘fit in’; seeking knowledge about learning and teaching; willing to learn from peers and mentors; developing a professional identity; learning to align with school, faculty and university goals, paradigms, and cultures
Mid Career – Carrying professional baggage from early career; informed by perceived career achievements, challenges and failures; specific type(s) of professional and institutional socialisation; personal habitus and cultural capital; aspiring leadership; research and publications; established personal identity style within a professional context
Mature/Late Career – mentor identity; the elder statesperson identity; expert in a field; the flexible faculty professional; status from experience; burn out; loss of institutional alignment

Implementation has to involve all levels of the organisation in order to gain success – there has to be bottom up and top down commitment at the same time
Lobbying is essential Attend every committee and opportunity to “give the message” Many staff are enthusiastic about PR but less are willing to commit There will be ‘champions’ Early career people are generally enthusiastic and willing Some academics will never participate voluntarily – don't spend
too much time there Use strategies such as getting colleagues to invite a person to
partner, speak openly about your experience, speak at staff forums, advertise and call for expressions of interest to partner and / or attend a workshop
