Abstract: Landbeck reports on very interesting research being pursued at the University of the South Pacific to discover students’ perceptions of what constitutes good teaching. Among other aspects, students highlighted lecturers’ good communication and interpersonal skills as being important for their learning. The article also suggests that the conception of teaching-learning at the U.S.P. may be mainly one of transmission-reception of knowledge and suggests how this may be expanded so that greater exploration of ideas occur.
