Lehrenden fallt es erfahrungsgemas oft schwer, Fragen zu entwickeln, die spezifische Denkprozesse bei den Studierenden anregen, da der Prozess der Fragenerstellung oftmals vorrangig durch die erwunschten Themen getrieben und erst im zweiten Schritt an bestimmte Lernzielniveaus angepasst wird. So entstehen dann beispielsweise Fragen, mit denen Lehrende glauben, die Analysefahigkeit der Studierenden zu uben oder abzufragen, die aber stattdessen nur auf die Anwendungsfahigkeit zielen.

The Faculties of Engineering of the Universidad Catolica del Norte (UCN) in Chile have developed a new curricular model and, respectively, a training program aiming to support academics in its implementation. This article presents part of the outcomes of research aimed at examining teachers' motivation towards training, the training's impact on changed conceptions and practices and its transfer potential. Results show that teachers are highly motivated, but no fundamental changes in teachers’ approaches to teaching take place after the program. Challenges to transfer are encountered in the teachers' individual capacity to transfer and in the institutional recognition. 30.09.2016 | Roxana Nora Acosta (City)","PeriodicalId":30058,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift fur Hochschulentwicklung","volume":"11 1","pages":"163-185"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69563072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, as a result of their education and professional experience, teachers also have good information and communication technology (ICT) competencies. But when examining lecturers' pedagogical skills and knowledge of digital technologies, a completely different picture emerges: Both are often only rudimentary. Plugging these competency gaps is a key goal in the process of socialization and development of new university lecturers. This paper demonstrates how new university lecturers can effectively identify and close these competency gaps – something considered important for the institutionalization of e-learning at universities. To support this process, the School of Management and Law (SML) at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) has developed the self-evaluation-based online tool, e-Reflection. This tool not only helps to identify competency gaps, it also provides lecturers with advice on how these deficiencies can be rectified effectively. The results are valuable to schools/universities wanting to set up a catalogue of e-learning skills necessary for their lecturers. In addition, we aim to demonstrate how it is possible to manage and support teacher development in order to institutionalize e-learning. 30.09.2016 | Claude Muller, Flavio Di Giusto, Sandra Gross & Stefan Koruna (Zurich)","PeriodicalId":30058,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift fur Hochschulentwicklung","volume":"10 1","pages":"187-203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69563077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
