Description
Your MSc course or MSc curriculum is attended by a great variety of incoming students. What prior knowledge do you assume to be present at the start? Are you clear about this in the study guide or admission criteria? How do you deal with partially or fully missing knowledge? For the new MSc Civil Engineering we developed a “repair-shop” for prior knowledge, based on Open Educational Resources (OER). This website, PRE-for-CEM (Prerequisite Knowledge for Civil Engineering Master), is shared with international students right after admission, a few months before the start of their programme, offering them the possibility to repair potential knowledge gaps.
In this session we help you to prepare a clear overview of prior knowledge necessary for your own course or curriculum, inspiring you to identify useful OER to repair potential gaps. We offer you a methodology to share this with students and gradually improve it with help of students and colleagues.
