SoTL round trip
(English version below)
The round trip aims to enable teachers from German-speaking countries to exchange ideas about SoTL with colleagues from other universities. We address these people as "pioneers", as they are to a certain extent breaking new ground or creating a German-speaking SoTL community through their activities. There is already a great variety of SoTL that is worth discovering.
We are designing the digital SoTL tour as a low-threshold and entertaining online format. We want to enable participants to share their personal enjoyment of SoTL with others and to be inspired by conversations with lecturers from other universities. The Local Guides should present the "SoTL sights" of their university at the beginning of each event.
The target group are university lecturers, university didactics experts, stakeholders from the fields of higher education development and HoBiFo and , last but not least, students who are already involved in SoTL or would like to get to grips with the topic.
Please sendregistrations for the individual dates to nerea.voeing@upb.de.
5th Digital Tour
Universities of the German language area developed a variety of approaches for research on and subject-specific development of their own teaching in the last few years. The concept Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) has major potential as a basic attitude and driving force for the further development and innovation of higher education. During the first four SoTL Tours (since 2020/21), various lecturers from the German-speaking area used the opportunity to exchange ideas about SoTL with their colleagues from other universities. We would like to continue the successful format of the tour starting in the summer semester of 2025, and therefore we kindly invite you to the fifth digital SoTL Tour. This time, we aim to expand the tour beyond the German-speaking region.
The goals of the SoTL Tour are to promote the SoTL teaching-learning community, enhance its sustainable integration at universities, and foster the establishment of a specific "Teacher-Researcher" attitude within higher education.
Please send registrations for the individual dates to nerea.voeing@upb.de.
