Peer Observation (25F05005)

Beschreibung

Peer observations are an immediate and highly effective method for assessing the effectiveness of one's own teaching. This course introduces the process and provides practical exercises using video examples to practice both observing various teaching situations and providing constructive feedback. The course is designed to prepare participants to independently conduct collegial observations.

The course consists of two on-site meetings and an implementation phase:

  1. On-site meeting: Introduction and preparation
  2. Intermediate phase: Conducting a collegial observation
  3. On-site meeting: Evaluating results and debriefing
  4. Proof of performance

Requirements for the issuance of a certificate of completion:
- Minimum attendance time at the class: 80%
- Successfully completed proof of performance: Observation report (evaluation criteria: change of perspective, operationalization of teaching goals, separation of description and evaluation, formal aspects)

Cancellation:
