    Teaching methods and instruction

    This is an intensive course in flipped classroom style. It requires students to prepare for the classes before and between the three contact days and attend classes. The teaching methods include readings, active learning approaches, class discussions, short lectures and (critical) reflection of students' past and current experiences with work practices and organisations. These learning methods have been designed to foster the following meta competences: complex problem solving, critical thinking, people management, coordinating with others and congnitive flexibility. Please note that there is a pre assignment for the course. Instructions will be sent to registered students three weeks before the first contact day.
