26.06.2023: Explain clearly and ask questions (GER) - 1day - on campus

Mon, 26.06.2023, 9:30am-4:30pm, on campus, ZLL, E 4.033 (Am Schwarzenberg Campus 3): Explain clearly and ask questions (Jenny A. Rohde) – German

“That was a good explanation!” When students evaluate teaching positively, they emphasize the understandable explanatory style of the teacher. However, it often remains unclear for teachers to what extent the learning content was understood. How should explanations be designed, how much assistance is useful, and what role do (feedback) questions to students play?

Objectives and contents

Using examples from mathematics and engineering, you will learn about the principle of minimal help, the technique of active listening and the criteria of good explanation and apply them yourself. This didactic background knowledge and the techniques will enable you to design your teaching in such a way that students experience more success and take responsibility for their learning process.

Learning objectives

At the end of the workshop, participants will be able to apply the principle of minimal help, the technique of Active Listening and criteria of good explaining in an exemplary way.

Methods

The workshop offers a varied mix of interactive lectures with research results relevant to practice, small experiments, space for discussion, and one exercise each on good explainations and on the technique of active listening in small groups.

To prepare/ to bring

For the explaining exercise towards the end of the workshop, please bring a topic that you can explain in a few minutes. The exercise will take place in groups of no more than four people.

07.09.2023: Conducting research-based learning with undergraduate students (BIL) - 1day - on campus - RBL

Thur, 07.09.2023, 09:00am-4:00pm, on campus, Channel4, room xy (Harburger Schlossstraße 28): Conducting research-based learning with undergraduate students  (Ulrike Bulmann, Dorothea Ellinger, Uta Riedel) – bilingual

Working with students in an active research capacity from the very beginning is often considered or experienced as challenging to impossible by various parties. Indeed, it requires a lot of preparation. However, research-related courses offer great potential to introduce students to research topics, methods or processes and to give them insights into the institutes, among other things to socialize them in the subject. Students can and should be trained in scientific work at an early stage in order to stimulate critical thinking and their own interest in research, as well as to promote an attitude of inquiry. The experience of collaborative knowledge generation as well as participation in interdisciplinary work can be very motivating for the students. But: How concretely can research-based learning or research-related teaching with Bachelor students be designed at the TUHH?

Objectives and contents

In this workshop, we will work together on questions concerning the design of research-based learning and research-related teaching with Bachelor students:
What benefits are seen in research-based learning with Bachelor students? What challenges can be expected in the introductory phase of studies and how can they be dealt with? What approaches are there to ensure that all students learn to conduct research in a small-step or large-scale manner, in the subject, interdisciplinary or with society, in basic or specialized courses? What successful teaching examples exist at TUHH and beyond?

Learning objectives

At the end of the workshop, participants will be able to discuss opportunities, challenges, approaches, teaching examples as well as conducive factors for research learning with Bachelor students.

Methods

The workshop offers a varied mix of creative methods, self-study time and work in small groups, practical examples from TUHH as well as flanking inputs.

To prepare/ to bring

if necessary 15min reflection

Prerequisite

It is advantageous to reflect in advance on your own understanding of research-based learning as well as on current national and international definitions of terms and systematizations. For this purpose, material for a 15min reflection will be provided in advance.

12.10.2023: Supervising and Assessing Theses (GER) - 1day - on campus

12.10.2023, 09:30am-4:30pm, on campus, ZLL, room E 4.033 (Am Schwarzenberg-Campus 3): Supervising and Assessing Theses (Katrin Billerbeck) – german

Supervising (final) theses is a responsible and rather challenging task. In engineering, usually little writing is done in undergraduate programs. Therefore, students often have to learn academic writing and its conventions at the end of their studies. In addition, international students may be familiar with different academic conventions and styles of interaction between university members. How can you support these students in writing their thesis, proactively counteract challenges, and create transparency about the requirements?

Objectives and contents

When supervising (final) theses of international students, you might encounter additional issues to the already existing challenges, e.g. because students are not yet familiar with academic or discipline-specific conventions, because there may be language barriers or because different interaction and communication styles are used. Therefore, the aim of this workshop is to work out needs and requirements in the supervision of international students and to develop solutions for specific challenges.

The following questions will be addressed:

  • How can you support particularly international students in writing their thesis?
  • What challenges, if any, have you already experienced in supervision?
  • How could you prevent misunderstanding and create a common understanding of the expectations and respective responsibilities?
  • How do you give appropriate feedback – even in difficult situations?

Learning objectives

At the end of the workshop, you will be able to assess what is important to you in the process of supervision and how you deal with challenging situations or proactively counteract challenges.

Methods

This Hands On Workshop offers a mix of impulse lectures, small group work, example work and time for exchange among each other.

To prepare/ to bring

Challenging situations in the supervising process.
