Focus Group Digital Teaching
The «Digital Teaching» focus group develops projects for digitalized «good teaching» under the umbrella of the «Human Being in Digital Transformation» strategy.
Project description
The «Digital Teaching» focus group’s goal is to develop perspective projects for digitalized «good teaching» that can be implemented as part of the «Human Being in Digital Transformation» digitalization strategy. This involves supplementing classroom teaching with appropriate digital forms of teaching and learning as well as enabling graduates of the University of Bern to use digital tools in a reflective manner and to critically shape and support digital change. These teaching projects can be commissioned in cooperation with other units of the University of Bern or be tackled by group members themselves.
