Programme

The programme of the “Question-Driven Learning in STEM” Summer School will start on Sunday early evening, 29 June, 2025 with an introduction and an ice-breaking event. On the following two days, the co-creation interactive sessions and discussions will start at 9.00 and continue until 17.00. Coffee breaks and lunch will be organized. On Monday we will organize a Social dinner that you can join if you wish on your own costs.

Intended Learning Outcomes

The participants will get acquainted with and will be able to describe the pedagogical benefits of question-driven teaching through experiencing it as a student in the summer school.
After the Question-Driven Learning Summer School the participants will be able to:

  1. design questions with different goals to implement in their teaching practice
  2. design a short guided inquiry session for their students
  3. take a role of a “guide on the side” in a session with students in an inclusive way
  4. discuss how this type of teaching could be adapted to available teaching facilities
  5. share experience about the guided inquiry teaching method with colleagues
