As part of the "New Methods of Teaching in Practice" workshop, participants learned about examples of the use of innovative teaching methods in subjects taught at the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology, as well as the experience of WUT's staff in this area.
The workshop on Design Thinking was conducted together with employees of IBM Poland. Issues related to the reconstruction of Ukraine after the ongoing war were chosen as a case study for this part of the workshop.
The workshop was complemented by a visit to the Museum of Warsaw. We also shared with our guests the experience of WUT's participation in the Masters of Didactics programme.
