3 Teacher training in Denmark
1994: Requirement for training of university teachers 1999: Mandatory training for new teachers at DTU 2005: First full professors appointed at DTU on basis of teaching 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

5 1. Teaching for competences
There is no best way to teach This does not mean that all teaching is good This means that you have to find your own way of teaching in a given situation The question is how? 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

17 How to learn 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

18 Learning approaches Surface learning Deep learning
Seeks to meet the assessment demands by reproduction and rote memorising Deep learning Tries to understand ideas and seek meaning Conceptual understanding 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

19 based on empirical research
Learning basics Learning is an active psychological process that takes place in the layer between known and unknown You have to work You cannot transfer understanding You have to be motivated You need a starting point based on empirical research 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

20 Learning process model
TT SC - Medellin 05 18/07/2019 Learning process model Activity 1: Data collection Empirical process  tacit contextual knowledge Double-loop feedback Activity 2: Reorganisation Rational process  explicit general understanding HPC 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

21 How to teach 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

22 Implications to teaching
from learning approaches from learning basics from learning process model form general competences from engineering competences 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

23 Implications to teaching
from learning approaches from learning basics from learning process model form general competences from engineering competences 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

24 Implications to teaching
from learning approaches from learning basics from learning process model form general competences from engineering competences 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

25 a. from learning approaches
Deep learning approach assessment  learning focus time to absorption curriculum overloading  core elements 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

26 b. from learning basics auditorium  laboratory
You have to work auditorium  laboratory You cannot transfer understanding deductive  inductive teaching You have to be motivated teacher control  student influence You need a starting point abstract  contextual teaching de-learning 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

27 c. from learning process model
Double-loop feedback Feedback is important Make sure to get through both loops Loop 1 Student controlled physical activity Loop 2 Teacher facilitated mental activity 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

28 e. from generic competences
Learning skills independent work Teamwork skills group work Communication skills doing presentations 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

29 f. from eng. competences Analyse, reduce, solve complex problems
Use ill-defined open problems Estimate, handle uncertainty, evaluate Practice a lot to train technical skills Meet expectations and respect ethics Train attitude with real-world problems Be creative Do not at all use simple textbook drills 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

30 What a teacher does A teacher facilitate student learning (Teaching)
evaluate student learning (Assessing)* and to do this a teacher structure student learning (Planning) *Grading 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

34 How to facilitate Test* Focus on core elements Student influence
Varied activities Open ill-defined authentic problems Group work Peer teaching *no grading 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

35 How to assess Assessment objectives Requirements to assessment
competences Requirements to assessment educational practical formal Support learning Use few resources External requirements 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

36 2. Teacher training DTU strategy: Focus on student learning
Conceptual change Professionalize Private  Team Action research Self reflection on teaching - In contrast to: Behavioural change Formal teaching abilities Focus on teacher performance Get a language You can argue why you do as you do Doing experiments in your own course 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

37 DTU organisation supervisor pedagogical consultants

45 Module 4: Project Action research:
Plan and implement teaching with focus on student learning – incl. feedback via tests peer coaching student evaluation Methods & tools from Modules 2 & 3 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

46 Test of the students Before teaching to test background and pre-knowledge After teaching to test learning outcome (conceptual understanding) 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

47 Peer coaching In groups of 4 Includes:
Structured discussion with colleague before lesson Colleague attending lesson Structured discussion with colleague after lesson Each group is assigned a pedagogical consultant 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

48 Evaluation by the students
The participant describe intentions The students fill in a special questionnaire (the MEQ) The teacher reflects on the correlation between intentions student evaluation own experiences Only reflections are important 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

49 Answers to Project assignment
1/3 into the course: Pre-test Describe course plan Argue for chosen methods After the course: Evaluation by the students Post-test Reflections 18/07/2019 HPC: TT PC - Medellin 05

50 And in the end…. Happy young teachers with teacher-training diplomas
