Rationale
The University of the West Indies, St. Augustine
Campus, is committed to providing a dynamic, highly student-centred
learning environment in which student learning is pursued as a
primary goal of the academy, and excellence in teaching is recognized
and rewarded. It seeks to provide a learning environment that
is enhanced by the research, discovery and integration of new
knowledge; characterized by a sense of shared purpose and collaboration
and supported by the judicious use of information and communication
technologies.
Within this environment, the Campus seeks to
produce graduates that are independent learners; problem-solvers;
logical, enquiring, creative thinkers; team workers; and with
well-developed skills for self-directed, life-long learning. In
pursuing this commitment to educational excellence, the St. Augustine
Campus is keen to recognize, celebrate and reward members of its
faculty whose performance is deemed to be outstanding and who
provide exemplary models of what it takes to create the kind of
learning environment outlined above, and an institution with a
global reputation for quality teaching and learning.
