Comment/Description

Drawing on the Teaching for Transfer framework (Yancey et al., 2014), the course will support teaching staff in the digital humanities with aligning the learning outcomes in their courses with scaffolded discipline-specific reading tasks.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

-scaffold, support, and evaluate students’ discipline-specific reading processes on the basis of transparent and informative criteria
-prepare, facilitate, and evaluate synchronous and asynchronous discussions of class readings
-foster students’ ability to connect their course-specific readings with their prior knowledge, and to prepare for transferring their knowledge into other contexts
-maximize on the benefits of modelling and peer feedback, especially for reading-intensive courses and for larger student groups

PRIOR to our session, participants are expected to complete two online surveys concerning their prior reading & writing experiences (URLs will be sent out soon).

DURING the workshop, participants are expected to draft at least one task description and to adapt the scaffolded assignments to their specific teaching contexts.

AFTER the session, participants are expected to complete an online course reflection.

Ina Alexandra Machura holds a position as a post-doc researcher at Siegen University where she is developing open educational resources for the humanities. Her research interests include multilingualism, learning & writing transfer, and work-integrated learning (WIL).
