Teaching Interchange

An Interactive Online Event for Peer Learning Among Educators

authored by: Linda Bücking, Stefanie Hürkamp, Paula Carstens
Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally challenged the educational approaches in Higher Education. Educators have adapted to the highly uncertain situation by developing emergency remote teaching scenarios. Real-time knowledge exchange between educators is crucial for transitioning these improvised teaching practices to professional online or blended learning scenarios. Thus, the online event “Teaching Interchange” was developed as a catalyst for peer learning among practitioners in the field of engineering education. It is a customized event considering the current needs and interests of the participants and consists of interactive online sessions. The two editions described in this paper successfully connected educators from various universities and equipped them with tangible ideas for their next steps.
