Applications now open for the 2024-2025 CRADLE Development Partners scheme!

CRADLE is pleased to announce that our Development Partners Scheme is continuing in 2024-2025.


The goal of the CRADLE Development Partners scheme is to fund an individual in each Deakin faculty, with the possibility of an additional partner who is not from a faculty, to embed some of the innovations that CRADLE is researching into everyday teaching practice.

Our 2024-2025 focus is on improving peer feedback provision in undergraduate students.

This scheme has an emphasis on implementation rather than on research. Please read the 2024-2025 CRADLE Development Partners Scheme Guidelines for more details on how the scheme will work.

We are looking for 2024 T2/T3 and/or 2025 T1 Deakin unit chairs or course directors who are already using peer feedback and are keen to innovate with us in this area.

CRADLE Development Partners will:

  • Receive a modest amount of funding ($2,000 per partner) to support the work
  • Attend workshops with us
  • Receive support from an assigned CRADLE mentor
  • Participate in associated research (however this is not the primary goal of this scheme)

We would like to invite interested Deakin University academics to submit an application by 8 July 2024. Your application will be jointly considered by CRADLE, DLF and ADTLs.

Please note that this is an internal opportunity limited to Deakin academic staff only.
