Innovative Teaching Practices to Ignite Your Classroom EURECA-PRO Lifelong Learning Academy – Online Course
About the Course
Have you developed a teaching method that you're truly proud of — one that could benefit thousands of students beyond your own lecture hall? Are you ready to share it with colleagues across Europe?
This self-paced online course brings together experienced educators from all nine EURECA-PRO universities, offering a direct pathway to inspiration and practical exchange. Born out of a survey conducted in November 2024 that gathered input from 115 teaching staff across the EURECA-PRO Alliance on their competencies, best practices, and training needs, the course is genuinely designed by professors for professors.
Participants explore innovative teaching practices and their real impact on the student learning experience through pre-recorded video lectures of 15–20 minutes each, complemented by self-assessment quizzes of approximately 20 minutes per session. The course content is continuously expanded and renewed throughout the project, and all sessions remain available on Moodle for ongoing access. No academic credits are awarded, but participants receive a Certificate of Completion upon finishing all sessions.
