In the Danish universities the students are expected to take responsibility for their own education and pose questions if there is something which they do not understand.This book is aimed at international students who are studying at a university in Denmark for the first time. It offers advice on how to study efficiently, how to take notes which are useful, and how to make the most of teaching and group work.

God undervisning på universitetet er orienteret mod de studerendes læring. Læringsaktiviteter i undervisningen og mellem undervisningsgangene spiller derfor en stor rolle i universitetspædagogik. Universitetspædagogik rummer erfaringsbaserede og forskningsrelaterede forslag til, hvordan man tilrettelægger, gennemfører, evaluerer og videreudvikler egen undervisningspraksis inden for de rammer som universitetet og forskningsbaseringen danner om undervisningen - hvad enten det drejer sig om traditionelle forelæsnings- og vejledningsaktiviteter, case- og projektarbejde eller e-læring. Forfatterne giver desuden den enkelte underviser redskaber til at overveje sit læringsteoretiske fundament. Bogens hovedafsnit: - Universitet som ramme- Læring og forskningsbaseret undervisning- Planlægning af kurser og lektioner - Gennemførelse af selve undervisningen - Vejledning - Eksamen og evaluering - Undervisningsudvikling for universitetsundervisere.Vi udleverer ikke undervisereksemplarer af denne bog. Universitetspædagogik findes også i engelsk oversættelse: University Teaching and Learning http://samfundslitteratur.dk/bog/university-teaching-and-learning
