As a cooperation between the project Network for Impactful Digital International Teaching Skills (NIDIT) and the Graduate Centre for the Life Sciences (GGL), the trainers of NIDIT - International Training Team, Inês Gamelas and Richard Vargas, are pleased to conduct the workshop: "Basic didactic principles and teaching methods" for GGL members on September 21, from 10:00 to 13:00. This workshop focuses on teaching methods and approaches, essential for planning, preparing, and delivering teaching sessions in any academic setting. The workshop addresses key topics such as the conception of teaching and learning objectives, the integration of strategies for giving and taking effective feedback, and the implementation of digital tools for interactive teaching-learning processes. Accordingly, the aim of this workshop is twofold. On the one hand, it seeks to make participants feel more confident when planning and delivering their teaching sessions. On the other hand, it attempts to improve participants' teaching skills in a variety of settings so that they are better equipped to cope with potential challenges of online and face-to-face teaching.
