ETS Projects 2014

 

Through the Exploratory Teaching Space, ETS for short, a commission was created in 2009 that promotes creative ideas for new types of learning and teaching. Within RWTH, ETS proposals are selected by a 15-member committee. Funds for materials and staff are awarded for one year.

The next call begins April 1, 2015. Proposals can then be submitted till May 19, 2015. Additional details and information will be available in the official call, the directions for submitting a proposal, and the description of the selection process.

 

BL and ETS 2014

89 proposals were submitted to the fifth call for BL and ETS. 22 of these projects were granted with a funding volume of more than 450,000 Euros. Project proposals were submitted from all the faculties and use various blended learning formats such as learning apps, serious games, and learning videos.

Three student ideas also received an award.The award ceremony took place on January 28, 2015. Vice-Rector for Teaching, Professor Aloys Krieg; Rectorate's Delegate for Blended Learning & ETS, Professor Heribert Nacken; and the AStA Chair, Raphael Kiesel handed out the certificates and prizes.

The coordinators of the BL& ETS competition will assist with the implementation of the three ideas and are already in discussions with the collaborative partners within RWTH.
