First EPT summer camp
From August 12th to 14th, the Lyceum Alpinum in Zuoz opened its doors for the first EPT summer camp for Physics Teaching Assistants (TAs), organized by our group as part of the EPT Hub's educational training program.
During the camp, Physics TAs, along with educational developers and coaches, had recalled the fundamentals of learning and teaching and explored ways to motivate and engage students by experimenting with student activation techniques.
In addition to didactic methods, the participants had the opportunity to learn more about self-management, personal and professional development.
Dedicated workshops allowed TAs to practice skills that are important to them as role models for their students, but also in their research and possible careers outside academia.
«The event was amazing!» – shared our participants in impressions.
We are very grateful to all participants and coaches for their great commitment and this opportunity to learn from the teaching experiences of others!
