Advice and independent study courses
Personalized teaching advice
Our personalized teaching advice focuses on your specific needs. Work with us to develop strategies for your teaching, reflect on your methodological approach and progress in your teaching projects. Contact us by mail if you need individual teaching advice.
Specialist or team consultation
Working within the scope of group consultation sessions, we work together to address individual and general questions, develop (cross-program) teaching concepts and methodologies and provide support in the didactically-structured redesign of modules, courses and even entire sections of degree programs. Contact us by mail if you need this type of advice.
Job shadowing
Watching colleagues teach is an integral part of the training provided within the scope of our certificate programs, and is a mandatory part of the basic module in the subject areas “teaching and learning” and “feedback and evaluation”. You also have the option of transferring credits gained within the scope of a further teacher shadowing unit to the extension module. Contact us by mail if you wish to take part in teacher shadowing.
Designing online courses
This eCampus course leads its participants through the important steps in the design of an online course and imparts practical tips and tricks for implementation. Access to the eCampus course requires a Uni-ID.
Further services in Confluence
Visit our Confluence pages. Access to these pages is restricted to University members, so you must log in with your Uni-ID (in BONNET or via VPN). Here you will find further information about current calls for proposals, workshop descriptions, interesting teaching projects from your colleagues from the certificate programs and much more.
Training offered by eCampus
The eCampus team offers a wide range of training courses (webinars) every semester to support you with digital teaching. For beginners and new employees, we offer introductions to the use of eCampus. In other webinars, you will learn more about specific tools, e.g. for collecting student work, for maths tasks and for communication. You will also gain insights into other portals such as eCampus Video (eLecture), which allows you to record and publish lectures in combination with presentations. You will also learn about the use of eExams (eKlausuren) with different types of tasks and hybrid scenarios. From digital exams to ePortfolios, there are many possibilities that you can use in your teaching. Register directly for the eCampus training courses via the following link.
