Description

When meeting students, in the classroom, online, individually or in groups, the teacher must handle the situation in such a manner that the student undertakes the endeavor of learning something new. Based on research about learning and different types of knowledge, this course aims to give practical tools for skillful teaching at the university level.

In the course, we engage in the practicalities of handling various, common, teaching scenarios such as lecturing and/or laboratory supervision, in various group sizes.

To be approved for the course and receive a course certificate, the participant must be present and participate in all five meetings. A catch up day will be arranged for those who miss a meeting.


After the course, the participants should be able to:

  1. Reflect on their own view of the university teacher’s role and significance for students’ studies
  2. Use relevant techniques as well as analog and digital tools to act in teaching situations
  3. Plan and carry out higher education based on basic ideas in pedagogy and rhetoric
  4. Discuss and reflect together with others on ethical and special educational perspectives on teaching in higher education

Course literature

Course literature will be provided by the course leader.

Target Group

This is a good course to start with if you do not have any courses in higher education pedagogy. The course is primarily aimed at new teachers at Karlstad University, but the course is focused on practical teaching, and therefore suitable for teachers with extensive experience as well.
