Beskrivning

The 1.5 credits course “Introduction to teaching” aims at providing new Ph.D. students and post-docs with basic knowledge and practical skills in teaching. The course is suited for Ph.D. students and post-docs with no or very little teaching experience. This course aims to instill confidence in the participants by focusing on practical issues pertinent to their upcoming teaching sessions. The course will mainly focus on how to handle lectures, seminars and laboratory sessions. The underlining pedagogical idea behind this course is a modified "flipped classroom"-approach. In other words, it is important for the course that you in preparation for the discussions and group work, that form the basis of the course, have read the material presented at the course home page at the Student portal (see below). In case of more applicants than space in the course, first year PhD-students will be prioritized.

• Awareness of the Uppsala University’s pedagogic program (aka “Teaching and Learning at Uppsala University: Guidelines for Educational Activity and Development”) as well as Uppsala University’s main mission and core values
