Providing education

Giving lectures to a group of students can be hard or exciting. here are no fixed rules, but there are a few starting points that can offer you something to hold on to.

If you are just beginning your career in teaching, there are a lot of new things to discover. To inspire, inform and welcome you, we have made a helpful checklist.

The Radboud University campus has facilities to enable online and hybrid education. These facilities are only realized in the Campus&Facilities rooms.

Feedback is important for the learning process. It is one of the most effective ways to positively influence the learning outcomes of your students. To do this, the feedback must be informative and arrive at the student.

In peer feedback, students evaluate each other's work. Students don't have the same expertise as a teacher to evaluate the work of others, but even then the feedback can be very rewarding.

A work experience abroad is a great way of learning from a colleague in a similar job function, gaining new insights or knowledge, and exchanging experiences. Take a look at the possibilities Radboud University has to offer.

With an active way of teaching you ensure that you involve your students more in your education. This helps them to keep their attention and to better apply knowledge and skills in new situations.

Motivation is inherently linked to learning. As a teacher you can influence the motivation of your students. You can distinguish between two types of motivation: intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.

The Skill Deck - developed by Frank Léoné (Assistant professor Cognitive Psychology) - aims to help students in developing academic and professional skills. They can use the cards for self-reflection, peer feedback and for discussion with their lecturer.

The thesis and internship are special components of the study programme. Students work largely independently and as a teacher you have intensive contact with students to guide them in this.

Coaching students contributes to self-management of students. There are various forms of coaching, such as supervising internships, theses, working groups and mentoring.
