In this paper, a new framework for conceptualizing leadership and management of learning and teaching is described. Its value as a tool to identify the leadership and management challenges faced by those with responsibility for developing institutional capacity and capability for e.learning and its capacity to guide strategy development, implementation and review is also examined. Developed from extensive interviews with innovators, leaders, and managers of learning and teaching within Australian universities, the framework describes six critical roles for leaders and managers of learning and teaching, in four broad domains of practice, and in four distinct contexts.
