Winter Semester 2020/21: Students acquire media-didactic competences for use in FAU teaching

After the very successful first round of the course in the summer semester 2020, we will also offer the seminar “Media-didactic Competences for Academic Teaching” (in German language) in the winter semester 2020/21. The course trains students to become [DiL EXPERTs], who will be able to support teachers in the conception and implementation of digital teaching/learning scenarios and integrate digital tools into teaching in a meaningful way.

How does this work?

It is a ‘blended learning’ seminar (alternating between three face-to-face input phases* and four online self-learning phases) throughout the entire summer semester.

Students will work out their own media-didactic concept for a short learning sequence and develop it further through peer feedback. Following this, they will take part in a StudOn course to acquire the tools to implement their own StudOn concept. Finally, they will create their own StudOn course and put their media-didactic concept into practice. For this course they will earn 5 ECTS!
