13 University teaching: putting theory into practice SUSPENDED

Course schedule

This course is not scheduled yet.

Course description

This course is suspended per January 2021. We have decided to integrate the UT course with the Peer Learning Meetings. The Peer Learning Meetings have been a very succesful pilot, because of its base in workplace learning (direct connection to the teaching & supervision practice of the participants) and the fact that the course is blended, with face to face meetings (now in corona-time online) spread out over a longer period of time. Also: in the Peer Learning Meetings there is a direct link (assignments) to the portfolio chapter about teaching and supervision, thus constructively alligned with the UTQ assessment.

The reasons for this decision is twofold:

  1. Research shows that multi-day trainings, especially if these take place outside of the workplace, have a much lower retention then trainings that consist of several shorter sessions spread out over a longer period of time. Shorter sessions with time in between, gives room for 'spaced learning' (repetition and building on knowledge and skills) as well as to several feedback loops.
  2. Three full days in a row are very intens with little time for processing all that is learned. The longer period of time allows for explicit processing time and also time to think about how to put the learned knowledge and skill into practice and try out new things.

 

In January 2021 we are starting with Peer Learning Meetings scheduled in period 3 & 4. We are going to pilot scheduling per period (3 and 4 are considered one period), because the main reason for lecturers to choose the UT over the PLM was because of scheduling reasons. We will then evaluate if we will meet the intended learning we aim for as stated in the reasons above for choosing for the Peer Learning Meetings over the University Teaching course.
