Projects
The BMBF joint project 'Lehrpraxis im Transferplus' (LiT+) aims at a quality improvement of teaching, according to the specific requirements in the STEM subjects, as well as in the humanities and social sciences. Furthermore, the university didactics and the media didactics are to be interconnected more closely with one another.
With the aim to secure and increase academic success especially in STEM disciplines, The Writing Centre of TU Dresden offers:
- Counselling and Workshops concerning academic writing, presenting and communicating in science, especially for students in STEM disciplines starting their studies or passing exams
- Qualification programme for peer tutors responsible for workshops and counselling (peer learning)
- Counselling and workshops for teachers in STEM courses focussing on didactictal methods and support of students starting their studies or passing exams.
The project is conducted in cooperation with the Career Service at TU Dresden.
In diesem ESF-geförderten Projekt wird eine Qualifizierung für Tutor:innen der TU Dresden angeboten.
Die Qualifizierung richtet sich nach den individuellen Bedarfen der Studierenden und den fachspezifischen Anforderungen der Studiengänge. Neben der Vorbereitung auf die tutorielle Lehrtätigkeit werden bei allen Teilnehmenden Kompetenzen gefördert, die auch im späteren Berufsleben sowohl im Bewerbungsprozess als auch im Arbeitsalltag von Nutzen sind. Projektübergreifendes Ziel ist eine zentrale Qualifizierung für Fachtutorinnen und Fachtutoren aller Studiengänge der TU Dresden.
Learning transfer is understood as the application and the transmission of learned knowledge to new and comparable situations.
Together with the Medienzentrum, a multiplier programme was created for teachers and an online-based training offer was designed for students. The aim of the project was to make a contribution to the securing of the students’ academic success in STEM courses.
The objective of the project was the conception and implementation of new counselling and qualification formats for the scientific staff of TU Dresden focussing on inclusion in teaching, counselling and supervising students.
The awareness of inclusion was raised amongst the teachers and their abilities to deal with health-wise affected students were promoted.
