Dear all,
This year’s AAU teaching day focuses on inspiring University teachers to prepare students for the future.
This means that we aim at inspiring AAUs University teachers to review and reflect on their current
teaching approaches to consider how to provide the conditions for innovative thinking. Speakers include
experts from within our own institution as well as experts from the ECIU – The European Consortium of
Innovative Universities, of which Aalborg University is a member.
Materials from the day’s presentations will be available thereafter on learninglab.aau.dk.

The Story of Digital Learning: The Future is Not What it Used to Be
This presentation tells the story of the dreams, debates and new designs associated with the emergence of
so-called disruptive models of digital learning. It anchors this story in a long history of educational
technology and asks if digital learning is the dream solution, then what is the problem? In exploring this
question the presentation starts by reflecting on claims about previous technologies and the rhetoric reality
gap between the state of the art and the state of the actual. A number of current debates associated with
claims about the transformative potential of digital learning are then explored from a critical perspective.
While these debates show the future still lives to some extent in the past, the presentation adopts the
language of opportunity to explore how teachers can redesign the curriculum through a blend of new
pedagogies and new digital solutions to provide more active, engaging and connected learning experiences
for 21st Century learners. Finally, we reflect back on the original question and some of the even bigger
problems facing higher education. In so doing the talk illustrates why our collective future depends on
developing new digitally enhanced models of teaching and learning in uncertain times.

About the workshops
Workshop 1 -Active Learning in (also large) Lectures – More than Clickers?
Dr. Andrea Brose
Dr. Brose leads the Centre for Teaching and Learning at Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH)
Activating methods are an integral part of many measures to improve teaching. Often one sees that these
methods can be used for small lectures only or that the method already provide themselves for greater
learning success. These and similar ideas may lead to disappointment among instructors as well as
frustration among students.
One aim of the workshop is to examine these ideas and expectations critically. This is already necessary
because the success hoped for activating methods do not always materialize by themselves.
The workshop "Active Learning in (also large) Lectures – More than Clickers?" aims to enable the
participant to get to know and be able to implement methods such as "Peer Instruction" and other
selected, activating methods that are suitable for use in large groups. It will be explored what factors are
crucial when implementing certain methods and what are the crucial didactical aspects for the success of
such methods.
We offer participants the opportunity to experience some of the methods themselves as well as to
contribute their knowledge and experience with activating methods.
Biography
Dr. Andrea Brose, Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH)
Dr. Andrea Brose leads the Centre for Teaching and Learning at TUHH. Before that she worked in the
Department of Engineering Education with Prof. Kautz, where they conducted empirical studies to find
difficulties in students’ understanding of fundamental concepts in engineering. Before she moved to
Hamburg, she taught mathematics at the University of California, Los Angeles and was responsible for the
quality of teaching there. Dr. Brose did her PhD in mathematics (probability theory) at the University of
Colorado Boulder in 1998.

Workshop 2 - Flipped classroom og podcasts – et hæfte fra HERU
Hans Hüttel & Lone Krogh Kjær-Rasmussen
Denne workshop præsenterer det første i en række af hæfter, udgivet af Higher Education Research Unit
(HERU). I dette første hæfte beskriver forfatterne, Hans Hüttel og Dorina Gnaur, principperne bag hvorfor
og hvordan man kan anvende en flipped classroom-pædagogik. Workshoppen giver et overblik over disse
principper og vil desuden give deltagerne mulighed for, at udvikle ideer til hvordan og hvor de kan
indarbejde ideer fra flipped classroom i deres undervisning.

har en PhD grad i Theory of Computation fra University of Edinburgh fra
1991. Han har vejledt et hav af studenterprojekter på datalogiuddannelserne
og på kursussiden har han især undervist i syntaks og semantik og i

Workshop 3 - Educational Battle - læring om udvikling af en problemformulering ved
inddragelse af ældre studerende
Henrik Find Fladkjær
Denne workshop præsenterer resultaterne fra forskning af en process, som studerene bruger, der benytter
intensiv undersøgelse til at præcisere en gruppes problemformulering og planlægning af dennes
projektarbejde. Idéen er at inkludere og undervise erfarne 8. semester studerende, som rådgiver bachelor
studerende i det første år. Denne workshop introducerer deltagerne til nøgle idéer og til hvordan man
organiserer sådanne aktiviteter. Derudover vil deltagerne også blive introduceret for resultaterne fra den
nyligt afsluttede forskning. Deltagerne vil være i stand til at planlægge sådanne aktiviteter i deres egne
kurser.
Henrik Find Fladkjær
Associate Professor
Henrik Fladkjær er lektor og formand for Erhvervsøkonomisk studienævn på
Aalborg Universitet. Hans arbejde på universitetet har i mange år omfattet
forskning og forskningsbaseret undervisning.
Hans forsknings- og undervisningsaktiviteter er fokuseret på komplekse
teoretiske emner indenfor erhvervsøkonomi, med konkrete og potentielle
forretningsrelaterede muligheder.
Henrik Fladkjær forsøger altid at kombinere undervisningen indenfor
erhvervsøkonomi med relevant informationsteknologi. Henrik Fladkjær er
opfostret med PBL modellen - både som studerende og, senere, som
universitetsansat. Han ser videreudvikling af sine egne PBL færdigheder som en
stor og interessant udfordring. PBL er også en essentiel del af studienævnets
tiltag; hovedopgaven her er at sikre at både undervisning og supervision er PBL
baseret.

In this workshop we will be discussing how to handle the digital formats of conducting. We will discuss
ways on how to use DE most effectively to support and integrate the digital format into the
teaching/examination process. The workshop will also report findings from a recent small research project
investigating the use of the digital exams, also to address some concerns people had. Participants are
encouraged to come with questions.
