University education seeks the way to transform the way students learn, from absorbing the knowledge, to learning by themselves. However, university faculty staff have limited opportunities to learn how to educate students.
This workshop is aimed at presenting necessary things to understand the fundamentals of education to create a course, like the method of designing active learning type lessons, creating syllabus, and is also an opportunity to have a stimulating talk with people who share the same goals.
