The program focuses on Constructive Alignment, Learning Journey Design, and the use of digital tools. Through hands-on workshops and the exchange of best practices, concrete solutions for international higher education are developed—from designing interactive Moodle courses to the ethically reflective use of AI.
The program not only strengthens individual digital teaching competencies but also promotes European collaboration in education. Participants develop their own use cases in transfer tasks and benefit from a network-oriented learning environment. With workshops on TECHNOLOGY (asynchronous teaching), PROCESS (live online teaching), and ETHICS (in-person teaching), the program is aimed at university educators who wish to systematically expand their digital teaching skills and experiment with innovative formats.
The goal of OTIP is to make various methods from these areas tangible for educators and to provide them with practical tips to gradually enhance their digital teaching. The methods and techniques learned can be applied both at participants’ home institutions and in EU4DUAL study programs, such as the Joint Master in Digital and Sustainable Manufacturing.
The OTIP program consists of a kick-off session and three 2-hour live online workshops, supplemented by asynchronous content and transfer tasks. The pilot run took place in October 2025, with further sessions planned for 2026. Georg Wagner: „For me, a really important and useful topic was the comparison of the purposes for which an in-person format should be used versus online formats. This was something that you really brought to the point.” And Harald Friedl: “I’m always impressed when experts in digital teaching show this ability to bring complex points or complex connections to a very clear picture.”
