Description

Continuous Professional Development (CPD) of school teachers is promoted worldwide and broadly researched. At the same time, academic teachers’ CPD is rarely addressed. Usually, science faculty members prove themselves to be high-level researchers, but at the same time, their interpersonal skills, pedagogical knowledge, and attitude of self-reflection on teaching are very limited. To address these issues, we designed the course Introduction to Academic Didactics for first-year PhDs. The results of the course development as well as students’ engagement and their perception of the current teaching formats, and their view of necessary changes, will be reported in a case study.
