Tell us your ideas
ETH Zurich encourages students to become more engaged in the teaching and learning process. The Student Innovedum project will enable students to transform their ideas into reality.
The Innovedum Fund, an initiative spearheaded by the ETH Rector, has been advancing faculty teaching innovation at ETH for many years. Now a new “Student Innovedum” project will provide focused support for students who wish to collaboratively develop, test and implement student ideas for enhancing the teaching and learning environment.
Interested students should view the website www.studentinnovedum.ethz.ch, discuss their ideas and register for the kick-off event to be held on October 5th, 2016. This event will be the official start of the innovation process for students.
At the kick-off event participants will hear more about the process, be encouraged to take an active part, and be invited to form teams. Through a series of workshops, called “Design Labs”, these teams will then be coached in prototype development in order to bring their ideas to the point of testing.
The results of their work will be presented at the annual Innovedum event on December 6th, attended by all persons interested in teaching and learning innovation at ETH, including the Rector.
“I can hardly wait to see the fantastic results of the students,” says Johannes Suter, the VSETH Teaching Commission representative and a member of the Student Innovedum Working Group. “I know that students often have great ideas for developing our learning environment. Now we have the opportunity to make these a reality.”
