Jaakko Kauko received a teaching award today with associate professor Mari-Pauliina Vainikainen for their course Quality and evaluation in Education.
‘The justifications for the award pay attention to the interaction between teachers and students in the course. They state that the awarded teachers encouraged the students to provide open feedback and developed teaching based on their suggestions. The teachers were able to develop the teaching communally in a large lecture course by experimenting innovatively and boldly. Teaching was developed with students in small groups and in common discussion platforms throughout the lecture course.’ (https://www.tuni.fi/en/news/tampere-university-awards-education-developers)
