New Projects at the ZfS
In February, we’re launching three forward-looking projects at the intersection of instructional design, society, and digital transformation:
Building Bridges Between the University and Society
Together with students, faculty, and external partners from civil society, we are developing an interactive platform that promotes exchange, collaboration, and practice-oriented learning formats. The interactive platform is designed to highlight the diverse university-wide outreach activities with civil society, bring them together, and facilitate networking and collaboration.
Bringing Future Skills to Life – Skills for Transformation
How can future-oriented skills such as resilience, critical thinking, agile working, and democratic literacy be taught in a concrete and engaging way? In this project, we are developing innovative, interactive learning formats designed to help students choose specific courses from our curriculum in this area and prepare them for the challenges of tomorrow.
Systematically embedding future skills
As part of a subproject of the “Center for Curricular Co-Creation” (CuCo UFR), we are developing an interdisciplinary framework for future skills and supporting degree programs in integrating future-relevant competencies into their curricula and teaching. Our initiative is one of several project activities in which teaching support units and degree program initiatives within the UFR are working together in an agile manner on innovation-oriented degree program development.
Further information and details about the projects will be available soon on our website. If you have any questions, ideas, or suggestions, please feel free to contact us. Here you can find the respective Project contacts.
