University teachers require their students to develop good learning skills and an ability to constantly reflect their own thinking in order to develop their expertise. This means that students need skills to regulate their own learning and development. But do teachers require these same regulation skills from themselves, and are they able to regulate their own teaching and development as teachers?
In his presentation Professor Jan Vermunt sheds light on this question of teachers’ own regulatory skills and reflection as a part of their pedagogical development. In this seminar you will hear about Professor Vermunt’s research results concerning both teachers’ and students’ learning approaches and regulation skills.
It will be discussed how teachers can learn to develop their pedagogical skills and thus to improve their teaching. You will also have a possibility to discuss in small groups with your colleague teachers at the Tampere University about your own experiences and beliefs about teaching and pedagogical development. Come to join this interactive seminar!
The seminar is organised by the Tampere University Pedagogical team at the Faculty of Education and Culture in collaboration with the Government Key Projects: University Pedagogical Support UNIPS, led by University of Turku, and HowUTeach, led by University of Helsinki.
