Improvements in university teaching have been the aim of a wide diversity of projects over the past decade. This paper reports on a series of three initiatives in one university which created opportunities for good teachers to share their understandings with others and gain recognition for their contributions. The initiatives centred on the development of Teaching Enhancement Teams ‐ groups of good teachers working together and individually to improve teaching within their own disciplines and across disciplines in the university. The three initiatives, focusing on enhancing teaching quality, on part‐time teaching and on flexible learning all contributed to improvements in teaching in the university. The paper describes the initiatives and their outcomes and draws out their common themes: the benefits of teaching enhancement teams and the issues important in their success; the selection of good teachers, support for the teams and the presence of an insitutional climate in which good teaching is valued and rewarded.
