Educational Resources Pool (for UU)

The expertise of our educational consultants can be summarised to the following themes:

Didactics and differentiation: How do you activate your students in a tutorial or lecture? How do you challenge honours students? How can students’ learning be supported optimally?

Internationalisation: How do you handle internationalisation of the curriculum. How do you teach effectively in English? How do you adapt your education to be more inclusive of diverse cultural backgrounds?

Assessment and feedback: For instance: development and implementation of rubrics, developing a testing policy, the use of portfolios, providing effective feedback to students.

Curriculum development: For instance: (re)designing and implementation of (blended learning) courses, e-modules, and programmes, designing learning tracks of academic skills, or deciding on final attainment levels and learning goals (constructive alignment). 

Quality assurance: Evaluations of existing or newly developed courses and curricula.

Teacher professionalisation: Supplementary to the UTQ (BKO) and STQ (SKO), we provide support for teachers, starting or experienced, with questions regarding their education.

Interdisciplinarity: O&T supports a diverse set of programmes with their vision on an interdisciplinary approach, the development and implementation of interdisciplinary courses or programmes, the support of students in the development of an interdisciplinary perspective.

Lifelong learning: O&T has a wealth of knowledge of and experience with teaching professionals and can help programmes with their Lifelong Learning selection and the didactics for this target group.

(Supervision of) learning to research: How can lesson study be implemented in education? How do you, as a teacher, evaluate your own education (for instance using SoTL)? How do you improve the research skills of your students?
