Special Interest Groups
The Teaching Academy supports TU Delft lecturers in exchanging their educational expertise through the facilitation of Special Interest Groups (SIGs) to share lessons-learned and experiences on education. All TU Delft lecturers are welcome to join a SIG. Teaching Academy SIGs welcome new members throughout the year. The formation and the size of the group is never fixed.

All TU Delft lecturers are welcome to join a SIG. After you sign up, you will be added to the MS Teams environment of the group you signed up for. Here, the group discusses their central topic and decides on the date/time and content for the upcoming SIG meeting(s).For all active SIGs see the yellow tiles below.
-
Besides joining one of the already existing SIGs, TU Delft lecturers are also encouraged to start a new SIG. To do so, sign up using the black button on the side of this page.After signing up, the Teaching Lab Facilitation Team will contact you to go over the first steps of starting the new SIG.
