Day of Education 2010

Studying in the 21st century: the ‘new’student? / 10.00 - 17.00

01 April 2010 Time: 15:28 

How do global developments affect the student of the future? How can the UT respond to this in terms of education and teaching? This will be the theme of the Day of Education organized by the University of Twente on Thursday 1 April.

The University of Twente intends to involve the 'new' student as a partner in the design and implementation of its curriculum. Who is the 'new' student and what does he actually want? Which innovative approaches to education and 'state-of-the-art' facilities are required to engage him?

The Day of Education is for teachers and students and they will be challenged to give shape to future education by means of lectures, workshops and discussions. The location is: University of Twente, Vrijhof.

For teachers:
Are you as a teacher looking for ways to inspire students, to involve them in the teaching and learning process and in so doing to help them develop an academic attitude? Or do you have ideas about this? The Day of Education offers you the opportunity to embrace and employ new techniques in the educational process.
Would you as a teacher like to do things differently? When you register, could you please state your subject area and give an example of a successful learning activity you use? At the end of the day you will have gained new insights and ideas about teaching activities.
