Call for Participation

Once a year, Leuphana's Teaching Day places the joint discourse of various university stakeholders on current topics, projects and initiatives in the context of teaching and learning at the centre of the university community. As in previous years, the Teaching Day is organised by the StIL-funded large-scale projects DigiTaL and SOUVER@N in cooperation with the Teaching Service. 

For the upcoming Teaching Day on 15 January 2025, we are focusing on topics related to examinations and examination cultures in higher education. From 13:00 to 18:00, presentations and impulses will offer space for exchange on current assessment concepts and forms and questions such as what and how do we actually examine? How do our examinations changing in the context of current technical, didactic and higher education policy developments, especially in connection with AI applications? What are the legal assessments of new developments? What form does testing take in current university teaching and what are the prospects for the future? How does assessment look like in current university teaching and what are the prospects for the future?

In addition to keynote speeches and impulses, Leuphana's projects, initiatives and offers will also be visible at the Day of Teaching. These may be related to the focus on assessment and exams or other topics in the context of university teaching.
