PED6013
University Pedagogy provides knowledge about key topics relating to teaching, learning and supervision.  The development of the university as an educational institution is achieved by strengthening the teaching and supervision skills of its employees. This course focuses on the ability of employees to engage in critical reflection about, and evaluate, their own professional practices and those of others.

All employees who are relevant for the course must apply for admission by the application deadline, through EVUweb. You should use Feide or MinID for logging in to EVUweb. The list of applicants is then shared with the Faculty's management, which nominates the applicants on the basis of the places available at the Faculty. A waiting list will be drawn up if the Faculty has more applicants than places.

Please note that the course requires 80% compulsory attendance/participation and it must be approved in order to take the exam, so it is important that you and your manager have cleared your work schedule if you are going to apply for University Pedagogy (UNIPED). The session dates are published under "Sessions" as soon as they are ready.
