Collaboration

A lot of higher education programmes include multi-, inter-, or transdisciplinary learning. These ways of learning enable collaboration between students from different disciplines and provide students with skills to solve contemporary wicked problems.

Available educational research provides various suggestions for the design of interdisciplinary teaching, learning activities, and related learning outcomes. In collaboration with Leiden Teachers’ Academy and Young Academy Leiden, Leiden University Graduate School of Teaching (ICLON) organises a knowledge café to share findings from the education research literature and practices within our own university.
