ZQA starts series "Potentials and challenges of digital higher education" with discussion paper "What makes digital teaching a 'good' teaching"
In traditional German university culture, teaching as an exclusively digital teaching and learning process in virtual space was neither planned nor conceptually defined and was even criticized in some cases - until the Corona epidemic forced all those involved in the university context to rethink the university as a place for digital education from one day to the next.
At the Center for Quality Analysis (ZQA) at the TU Dresden, studies are being conducted to shed light on the challenges higher education is facing and the opportunities and potential that can be derived from them. The results are now to be processed step by step in a dossier published regularly under the title "Potentials and Challenges of Digital Higher Education".
What characterizes good digital teaching and what are the requirements for a digital education setting in the university context? What does the range of services already provided offer and to what extent can fields of action be derived for the future of university teaching? These and other questions are addressed in the first discussion paper in the series entitled "What makes digital teaching 'good' teaching".
The discussion paper can be found here (in german).
