Training for Campus & Online Teaching

This course aims at developing skills and acquiring insights in activating audiences. Since activation is the key to learning effectiveness the question of activating audiences is very relevant for education.

Along with investigating the various possibilities such as games, you will learn tools from theatre for the guidance of student activity and enhancement of their mental activity using ‘Movies in the Mind’ and ‘Arcs of Tension’. A new method to analyse learning objectives will provide the opportunity to develop short practical exercises.

Course grades reflect how well students master the learning objectives. However, exams also reveal how well we succeeded in teaching the course and in developing good exam questions.
You will learn to:

• analyse to what extent your students master each learning objective.
• analyse the quality of the exam as a whole
• analyse the quality of individual sub-questions of the exam
• calculate individual grades from the individual exam scores
• adjust scoring and grading in case of quality issues with sub-questions

Information and access to the tools that are available will be provided. Example data will be used during the workshop. If you want, you can stay longer to work on your own exam dataset. During the workshop, there will be plenty of room to exchange experiences and challenges in your own courses.

This training is free of charge.

Peer Consultation is a structured and validated method where a group of lecturers facing similar challenges in their line of work share experiences in a secure, confidential environment.

These sessions are facilitated by experienced educational advisors with a background in supervision. The meetings are aimed at sharing difficult or challenging situations and receiving advice or counsel. This is a good way to broaden perspectives and improving the ability to deal with different situations. Growing personally and professionally requires revealing limitations or challenges to others, which can feel difficult and can make participants feel vulnerable. The facilitators of the peer consultation groups are aware of this and strive to create a warm, welcoming and supportive environment which allows everyone to give and receive both guidance and feedback in a positive and respectful way. After signing up for the first session, the group will decide on new meetings together.

Peer Consultation is free of charge.
