Master in Essentials Of Teaching

Tuition costs 5,800 USD per year.

ECHO's 'Essentials of Teaching' (EoT) is built around a fully flexible, self-paced Blackboard environment specifically designed for academic staff at the University of Antwerp. Rather than a rigid classroom experience, this programme functions as a professional resource hub where you curate your own learning path based on your immediate teaching challenges.

By engaging with this platform, you will develop practical strategies to:

• Align your instruction with the UAntwerp vision on education.
• Implement competence-based teaching frameworks effectively.
• Design active learning experiences that move students beyond passive absorption.
• Refine your assessment and grading strategies to ensure they accurately reflect student competence.
• Master the art of delivering high-quality, actionable feedback.
• Systematically monitor and enhance the quality of your course units.

A Personalized Professional Development Path

The programme offers a blend of screencasts, scholarly articles, institutional policy documents, and curated web resources. It is primarily tailored for new international lecturers and assistants looking to gain a foothold in the university’s pedagogical culture, though it remains a valuable resource for any staff member seeking to formalize their teaching practice in an English-language context.
