MAPS Teaching Interest Network (MAPS TIN)

The aim of the MAPS Teaching Interest Network is to promote good teaching practice throughout MAPS and beyond, act as a forum to discuss teaching practice through peer dialogue and to help staff gain recognition for their efforts. The Network's events are therefore intended for any MAPS staff, be it teaching, academic or professional services, with an interest in teaching and pedagogy.
