TUTORING - Qualification for student tutors of all degree programs
Was ist TUTORING?
As a subject tutor, you lead tutorials, exercises and practicals as part of a course. You are responsible for repetition, practical practice and a deeper understanding of course content. The design of the learning environment, which promotes independent work, is one of the central tasks of subject tutors.
TUTORING
- TUTORING has been part of the virTUos project at the Center for Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching (ZiLL) since 2023.
- In the TUTORING sub-project, hybrid teaching-learning scenarios in tutorials, exercises and practicals are identified, didactically analyzed, further developed on an interdisciplinary basis and prepared as OEP (Open Educational Practice). The focus is on developing teachers' skills in interactive hybrid tutorials, tele-tutorials, exercises, laboratory and machine practicals.
- Since April 2024, part of our work has been funded by the ESF Plus funding guideline. This concerns the "SMART PEERS" part of the sTUDy SMART network project, in which we have a special focus on female tutors and international lecturers, networking them and creating further training opportunities.
- By the way - did you know that TUTORING 2022 received recognition and 2025 one of three honorable mentions for diversity-sensitive teaching?
