Future leaders for strategic educational development program
A development-oriented and meritorious program for skilled teachers at KTH
About the program
The program was run for the first time in 2022, with 12 teachers who had the opportunity to strengthen their expertise and skills further, thereby also contributing to the development capacity and culture at KTH. The content of the program was shaped by the participants' own interests. Through joint activities and individual work in their projects, the participants get opportunities to develop and demonstrate pedagogical competence.
Aims and goal
The aim of the program is to enable and drive the overall expertise and capacity for development at KTH, by stimulating and supporting the continued development of already skilled teachers, especially with regards to their pedagogical skills in a collegial and scholarly sense. The focus is to promote the development of the educational organisation and of the education on all levels. At the same time, pedagogical development work is made visible and the value of pedagogical merits is strengthened.
The overall goal of the program
The goal is that participants should strengthen their ability to contribute to and lead successful development and innovation within the educational environment at KTH and in their own teaching assignments. In particular, they should:
- develop their expertise in issues of importance to education at KTH
- develop their capacity for impactful educational development, also in collegial and cross-border collaboration – for example with students, across disciplines, between universities
- develop their ability to develop, use, assess and communicate pedagogical knowledge
- contribute to the visibility of pedagogical development within KTH, and in national and international contexts
