Modules Education

Research and teaching are closely linked. As a member of our teaching staff, you have the important task of training the excellent FAU researchers of the future. However, teaching is a skill which has to be learnt. We have excellent teacher training specialists on hand to help you with modules tailored to meet your needs aimed at helping you design and develop your own teaching methods and classes. During the semester, you can actively work on your own lectures with our experts and put what you have learnt into practice straight away.

You are given support in analogue university teaching (module E1) as well as in the up and coming area of online teaching (module E2), and have plenty of opportunity to keep improving and fine-tuning your teaching skills.

You can choose between the modules E1: Advanced Higher Education – Focus on your own teaching and E2 Online teaching, as each module is one independent unit.

Please register for the modules by mail.

Regarding the details of the module procedure and documents to be submitted in advance, you will be contacted and personally informed by all trainers in good time before the module.

Module E1: Advanced Higher Education – Focus on your own teaching (Centre for Continuing Education in University-Level Teaching, FBZHL)

This workshop focuses on creating your own teaching profile. Over the course of the workshop you reflect on your previous teaching experience and draw up a teaching portfolio. Teaching portfolios are becoming increasingly important when applying for a new position. A typical teaching portfolio gives a brief outline of your previous teaching experience but focuses mainly on your fundamental understanding of teaching (teaching philosophy), gives examples of your teaching, explains the motivation behind your teaching and details how you see your teaching developing in future. Teaching portfolios are a recognised and established means of tracking the development of your teaching skills. In this module, you work on your teaching portfolio during a blended learning workshop. You are given individual support whilst reflecting on your teaching and drawing up your own teaching portfolio.

Content:

  • Create your own teaching portfolio
  • Expand your knowledge of specific topics tailored to your own situation, for example skills-oriented teaching.
  • Benefit from the expertise of experienced teaching specialists for your own lectures and seminars, even during the current semester.

Module structure:

The module consists of a two-day blended learning workshop.

The kick-off session starts with an introduction to the seminar and covers the basics of a teaching portfolio (four units of 45 minutes each). During the current semester, you then have sufficient time to take various StudOn courses on specific topics during the self-study phase (eight units of 45 minutes each). The aim is to come up with a rough draft of your own teaching portfolio within this period. The module finishes with a feedback session with the other participants in which you present your teaching portfolio and have the opportunity to give it a final polish and fill in any gaps there may be (four units of 45 minutes each).

Dates:

  • Day 1: May 12, 2023, 9 am – 12.30 pm
  • Self-study phase: May 12, 2023 – June 23, 2023
  • Day 2: June 23, 2023, 9 am – 12.30 pm

Location: Online

Places: 12

Coaches: The Centre for Continuing Education in University-Level Teaching (FBZHL) has gathered a lot of experience in improving teaching skills, and collaborates closely with the other Bavarian universities. With a close-knit network of lecturers and their own expertise, the FBZHL is able to deal with all topics of relevance to universities and science.
