Training programme: Hack my Course!

This training provides you with new methods and tools, which help you to integrate innovation and entrepreneurship into your own teaching.

For whom?

The programme is aimed at teachers who are interested in developing their teaching/course to support active and student-centered learning. The program is suitable for any courses in any subject or domain.

N.B. Currently we are able to organise the workshop only for groups, not individual participants. 

Contents of the programme

The program is based on the Hackathon concept, with emphasis on providing the participants with tools for integrating innovation and entrepreneurial competencies into their teaching. 

During the 4-day programme, the participants develop a completely new course or make changes to an existing one. Experienced facilitators will guide the participants, and provide concrete examples for developing their course and using the newly learnt tools in their teaching. 

Each part of Hack my Course! is designed to promote the overreaching goal, namely to facilitate innovation of education and teaching in each participants context and domain.
