Lincoln embraces a 'western' style of learning which values the exploration of ideas and independent thought, backed up by sound research. This requires students to be responsible for their own learning and to be self-motivated. Guided by experienced academic staff, students are expected to analyse and challenge ideas, concepts and issues, and to present their own interpretations. When mentioning the theories and concepts of other authors or experts in any written work, they need to formally acknowledge their sources.
Teaching and learning support is available for students who need help in making the transition to tertiary study.
