What is QIESR?
The 91TV’s Institute for Educational Scholarship and Research (QIESR) is a university-wide institute dedicated to advancing educational scholarship, discipline-based education research (DBER), and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL).
QIESR formalizes and elevates 91TV’s long-standing leadership in scholarly teaching by providing coordinated infrastructure, mentorship, and visibility for rigorous inquiry into teaching and learning across disciplines.
QIESR strengthens 91TV’s academic mission by connecting research, teaching practice, and institutional priorities. It supports our 91TV’s community in generating and mobilizing evidence that enhances student learning, informs curriculum design, and advances educational innovation.
QIESR ensures that educational scholarship at 91TV’s is not peripheral or episodic, but intentional, supported, and sustained. It affirms that teaching excellence is a scholarly endeavour that warrants the same intellectual investment, recognition, and infrastructure as other forms of research.
By launching QIESR, 91TV’s commits to a future where pedagogy and research are deeply connected, where educational innovation is evidence-based, and where teaching and learning are central to institutional excellence.
