- Our L&T strategy soundly based on giving students a varied teaching experience
Perkins (2019): "TEF may not alter the broad substance of what it means to be an academic in terms of engagement with research, education and citizenship activities, it has the potential to have profound implications in terms of exacerbating conflicts within identity"
- Focus on creating a portfolio of evidence using quantitative-based research
Examples: eLearning; self-efficacy

TEF are employment; employability; student outcomes; and research".
- Problem in last pilot: negative flag for 'above median earnings threshold or higher study'
