In deze workshop krijg je toegang tot de nieuwe, online kennismodule die is ontwikkeld binnen het Comeniusproject "Effectief Onderwijs voor Alle Studenten".

Quick wins in teaching: small changes that impact your efficiency and effectiveness – Anthea Aerts (LLInC), 1A.01 Do you struggle with managing your teaching time? Do you want students to be more engaged? Are you open to making changes, but unwilling to completely overhaul your course or teaching style? If your answer to these questions is 'yes', then this might be the workshop for you! This workshop is designed to share practical and easy-to-implement strategies that can make a difference in your teaching. Learn from and share experiences with colleagues in this interactive session. |

RIDE to the future: planning your teacher development – Laura Schneider (FSW Onderwijsbeleid), 1A.25 Do you want to identify your strong suits and development possibilities in terms of didactical skills, educational design, and more? Would you like to match your development needs to the opportunities at the faculty and university level? Join the intervision meeting, where you will work with the newly developed RIDE instrument, together with some of your colleagues and Laura Schneider (who can tell you more about professional development at our faculty). Everyone is welcome: those who just started teaching, those who’ve recently obtained their BKO, as well as seasoned professionals! |

How to write a Grassroots/Grass Shoots proposal – Mieneke van der Salm (SOLO), 1A.37 Each academic year the FSW awards Grassroots and Grass Shoots grants to stimulate and support educational innovation. But how to write a successful proposal? Why do you need to formulate a theory of change? And what does the committee consider innovative? Join Grassroots/Grass Shoots coordinator Mieneke van der Salm (SOLO) to learn the answers to these questions and get more tips on writing your Grassroots or Grass Shoots proposal. |

16:00 | Keynote + Q&A: The art and science of autonomous learning - David Ehrhardt (Leiden University College), Centrale hal
Autonomous learning is one of the most important skills that higher education can help students develop. The award-winning Learning Mindset (LM) project uses an iterative model of autonomous thinking and learning that combines the skills of self-regulation with the reflective process of building a dynamic understanding of one’s own goals and capacities. Based on the experiences accumulated in the LM project, David will outline some ways in which this complex notion of autonomy can be translated in to simple - but powerful - teaching tools to promote autonomous learning. After the talk, you can easily try these in your own classes. Early-stage research into the effects of these tools shows that this can result not only in increased student motivation, better learning attitudes and better outcomes, but also in more rewarding (and fun!) teaching experiences. |
