Session 2
 
Major Theme: Digitalization in Learning and Researching

Monday 25. May, 14:00 - 17:45
Location: EL6 (View floorplan)
 
On Education
  • How do we redefine learning objectives for student skills, competencies and attitudes for a digitalized future when designing programs, and how do provide the learning opportunities?
  • What happens when we no longer have to teach “knowledge”, because of unlimited access to the internet, and will “back of an envelope” have any meaning for future students?
  • Can we “hack” the brains of our students and make them better learners, improve possibilities for individualized teaching, and offer tailor-suited options for continuous education?
  • What contemporary teaching formats will become obsolete and be replaced by digital tools and what formats will not?
On Research
  • Can computational thinking be applied to all “classical sciences” and what does that require of the “classical scientists”?
  • How to take the opportunity of new digital options in sharing outcomes with society?
  • Can we “hack” the brains of our researchers and make them better innovators for a sustainable future?
  • How do we support the computational and data science needs of our researchers as universities of science & technology?
