Examining your own teaching – A success factor?

Structured phases of analysis-trial-reflection-input combined with concrete teaching situations promise to enhance learning results and to enhance the transfer of insights into teaching practice. Two modules of a professional development programme for HE lecturers focus on an analysis of their teaching. The aim is to encourage a “shift from teaching to learning” by way of data-based self-reflection. In one scenario, participants reflect on a specific teaching situation within the framework of expertise research. In another scenario, participants address challenging didactic issues in their teaching with the help of Luuise, a method for formative evaluation. Concomitant research confirms the potential of the approach.
