Future-oriented Teaching Concept
My teaching concept is based on a student-centered approach, where I seek to engage students in active learning, using innovative methodologies such as project-based learning, collaborative learning, and gamification. I intend to integrate emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and augmented reality, to enrich the teaching experience. In addition, I value continuous assessment and constant feedback, allowing students to self-evaluate and improve throughout the course. Teaching will be interdisciplinary and focused on developing practical skills that prepare students for a constantly evolving job market, with a focus on sustainable solutions and social responsibility.
