My teaching practice is anchored in the scholarship of reflective practice, an evidence-based approach proven to enhance teaching quality and improve student outcomes and grounded in the conviction that quality teaching is fundamental to student success.

As the Academic Lead for Advancing Teaching at UQ’s Institute for Teaching and Learning Innovation (ITaLI), Deanne designs programs that enhance teaching excellence, focusing on recognising and rewarding teaching expertise. Through these programs, her leadership and expertise impact governance, curriculum innovation, and has shaped inclusive academic communities globally.

Her research in Higher Education has resulted in 91 published scholarly works, secured $1.9M in funding to investigate and innovate university education practices, and spearheaded international collaborations that influence teaching recognition and career progression globally.
