| Internationalisation of your students at home? Join the COIL training programme for teachers
|
| Nowadays, we are constantly in connection with others all around the world. Imagine using that connection in your education by bringing students from different cultures and institutes together in one (virtual) classroom. Or in other words: Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL). To experiment and use COIL in your education, you can join the first edition of the COIL programme for teachers. During this programme, hosted by the Science faculty, you will (start to) create or redesign (part of a) course so that it is suited for COIL.

The TAUU is looking for support!
The teaching community TAUU is looking for support from a project leader as well as a new TAUU council member, both for only one day a week. The TAUU council consists of a diverse group of UU lecturers and is the face and voice of the teaching community. It picks up what is going on among lecturers and raises awareness for those topics. As project leader, you will support the TAUU council in realising their goals. Do you work at UU and do you have time for an extra day’s work? Then one of these two positions might be a good fit for you!
