Here you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions about TeachEUR.
General
The primary focus of TeachEUR is on serving the leading and innovative educators, ranging from teaching assistants to professors, who are actively seeking ways to further develop their teaching and expertise, deepen their knowledge, and/or find inspiration in designing and delivering their courses. Initially, we target educators within EUR, but the website is also accessible to individuals outside our university who are interested in what TeachEUR has to offer.
Secondly, with TeachEUR, we also aim to reach support staff, course coordinators, and Learning & Innovation teams. While they have fewer direct teaching responsibilities, they can still influence course design and the educators who provide and deliver instruction. Our goal is to primarily supply this group with information about what TeachEUR has to offer and to maintain an ongoing dialogue to ensure that TeachEUR remains as relevant as possible for the various stakeholders within the faculties.
TeachEUR provides teaching activities designed to easily promote active learning, collaboration, and interaction during contact moments between students and educators. All teaching activities on TeachEUR are either created by or aligned with educational experts from Risbo to ensure quality and positively impact students' learning outcomes and experiences. Feedback, ideas, new activities or tips for new tools are always welcome.
To select teaching activities, use the filters or search bar above the teaching activities on the homepage. The following filters are available:
- Activity goal: What do you want to achieve with the students (based on Bloom's taxonomy)?

- Duration: Indication of the approximate time it will take to complete the activity.
- Where: Will you be using the activity in a room on campus, online or simultaneously on campus and online (hybrid)?
- Group size: Is the group small (max 10 students), medium (max 50 students) or large (more than 50 students)?
Exploration
We offer a deepdive in theoretical insights on various themes in collaboration with CLI Fellows. They hold a senior position as EUR lecturers and/or take a leading role within their faculty in the field of educational innovation and/or educational research. CLI Fellows develop an innovative project and combine it with research on the implementation and/or the impact of the innovation on education. Together, we have translated this into practical tips and tools, teaching activities and learning materials to implement these themes in educational practice.
MicroLabs are short, blended how-to modules about specific educational issues lasting two to four hours. Each MicroLab has a clear goal and a clear result. After an preparation (and qualification) in Canvas you will have a live session MicroLab. In this MicroLab session you start working on your own education material. This means that after the MicroLab, you will have a concrete result for your own education. As an EUR teacher, you can participate for free.
