100 years WU: ‘explore the joy of teaching, improve the quality of education’

On November 29th 2018, the ICAB (Innovatiecentra Academisch Bètaonderwijs) Conference will take place in the Designlab on campus at the University of Twente. All 4TU staff are invited to participate.

Rapid changes in technology trigger new jobs and updated engineering study programs in many countries. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) asked Ruth Graham to survey the global state of the art in engineering education as input for their own MIT educational reform plan NEET. Results were published in Spring 2018 and will be presented by Ruth in this session together with the challenges that come with high quality programs, such as how to combine challenge based project education with rigorous attention for engineering fundamentals? In the discussion the Twente Education Model can be compared with these global trends.

On the 26th and 27th of November a workshop is held on interdisciplinary education by Prof. Siddhartan Govindasamy and Prof. John Geddes from Olin College.

4TU.CEE welcomes all TU/e and 4TU employees engaged in teaching and learning at the TU/e Innovation day 2018. This day is organised yearly to inspire teachers to innovate their education. This year the possibilities of remote and virtual labs in education will be explored.

In this interactive workshop Monika Rummler of TU Berlin  will share a challenge-based model of teaching and learning of staff with “teaching change agents”. The challenge-based model specifically focuses on the daily challenges teachers face in their work. Challenges that cannot be addressed immediately, but need addressing immediately. Challenges for whom no-one is available on the spot, but your peer next door who is also swamped in his/her research activities.

At TU Berlin bachelor studies include lectures with a massive number of students between 500 and 1500 students attending. In what way is it possible to keep these masses engaged, on task and making the most of their studies. Monika Rummler of TU Berlin will share how they prepare their teaching staff. She will share insights into the most frequently encountered problems during these classes and what one can do to deal with those problems.

CELT and 4TU.CEE invite you for a lunch colloquium on 'Professional development for Higher Education teaching staff'. Dr. Monika Rummler (Centre for Scientific Continuing Education and Cooperation, TU Berlin) will present and discuss how TU Berlin is improving teaching and learning via continuing professional development of teaching staff.
