To all IDE graduation supervisors,
We would like to invite you to Education Inspirations: the Share&Learn session. These share and learn sessions are a new initiative* to connect graduation supervisors to each other and discuss experiences and challenges. These sessions will also cover specific topics concerning supervision, like discussing expectations, how to deal with students that face mental health challenges, and giving and receiving feedback,…
The first session takes place on 25 May from 12:45 till 13:30 in Pulse hall 2. Lunch will be provided. Please sign-up if you can join us. Looking forward to seeing many of you.
*This initiative is part of the project ‘Shaping successful graduation journeys’ that is running at IDE supported by the TU Delft Study Climate Programme.
Sign Up and Kick Off at 3Me
We learn more when we engage and work together: a call to action for 3Me graduation students!
As part of the project: ‘Shaping Successful Graduation journeys’ a pilot intervention will be explored at 3mE. This initiative aims to build a community for graduating students by offering “The Graduation Community Program” to all graduate students starting between the middle of October and the end of November. We want to provide tools to the students within their own graduating group so they can learn and help each other along their graduation journeys. We recommend all students to take the opportunity to kick-start their graduation community. Graduation might be an individual journey, but you don’t need to be alone in it. Join us on the kick-off day, November 8th, from 9.00 till 12.30. The program is organised by the TU Delft Study Climate Program in collaboration with 3Me. To be part of the program sign up here.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19, two researchers of the project team, Mieke van der Bijl-Brouwer and Rebecca Price, have been investigating student wellbeing. Their paper got published in a special issue on COVID-19 Global Emergency in the Strategic Design Research Journal. They describe how they used a strategic human-centred design and systems thinking approach. And present a number of design principles that can enable future designs that promote student wellbeing in (pandemic) higher education.
You can find the paper here.
What is the goal of the graduation project according to you as a supervisor? Your answer to this question is probably different than that of most students! Join the theme session with your IDE graduating students. A learning and reflection moment where we discuss the balance between learning and performance in their master graduation project, Sign up here.
This theme session is part of the graduation community program at IDE. Graduating students part of this program are automatically invited.
This video explains the TU Delft project: ‘Co-creating the graduation journey’ together with a showcase of the first intervention.
The second intervention gives students the opportunity to kick-start their graduation community. A program running for 20 weeks where we will provide them with tools to form their peer learning community.
Open to students who start their graduation project between the beginning of February and half March.
