ECIU Learning Opportunities offer:

The team leader supports the ECIU challenge teams by:

• Assisting in the creation of preliminary work processes and activities throughout the Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) cycle (Engage-Investigate-Act).
• Providing pedagogical expertise in interdisciplinary, intercultural, and international teamwork during the work process.
• Helping to manage potential conflicts and challenging situations to keep the CBL process running smoothly.
• Using didactic methods that promote innovative and creative thinking to boost learners' confidence within the team and empower them to take control of their own learning process.

Eldebo et al. (2022) identified three key roles required for addressing these tasks in CBL: (1) the teacher role, which is knowledge-oriented; (2) the coach role, which focuses on skills; and (3) the organizer role, which is focused on the framework of the challenge.

Be a co-creator in the development of innovative educational programs and study offerings at TUHH based on Challenge-Based Learning and the creation of micro-modules tailored to the needs of learners.

Participation in the ECIU University offers the opportunity to find solutions to today's key societal and economic problems.

Moreover, working with the ECIU University gives you the chance to help shape one of the first European universities pioneering a new path for education at the European level.

When planning and preparing challenges – from the initial idea to feedback and evaluation concepts – or handling acute challenges in student teams, Ms. Siska Simon is happy to assist you.

The Center for Teaching and Learning (ZLL) at TUHH offers at least once a year an introduction to the fundamental principles of Challenge-Based Learning, teaching in international contexts, or blended learning.

To ensure that the challenges are real-world issues, TU Hamburg is seeking partners from industry, businesses, and the public sector who are willing to contribute in the following ways:

• Willingness to work together with students and researchers on a relevant challenge. This will be thematically aligned with SDG 11, "Sustainable Cities and Communities": making cities and settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable.

• Participation in a moderated workshop with students and other university stakeholders. The goal is to develop a challenge that is suitable for piloting the format and motivating for students.

• Designation of a specific point of contact for process support.

• You connect with the international workforce of the future.

• You gain new perspectives and solutions to real-world challenges in your field.

• You gain access to the network and other innovative stakeholders of the ECIU.

• You make a decisive contribution to the modernization of higher education.

• You decide how much you can and want to contribute – from being available as an external expert to continuous project participation, anything is possible.

You can get involved in the challenges and micro-modules in a variety of ways and in different roles!

How this can look specifically for you or the employees from your company, start-up, association, network, or public institution can be discussed with Ms. Anna-Lena Glesinski.
