Breakout 2: Educational Innovation in INGENIUM: How to Move from Pilots to Institutional Change

INGENIUM’s first phase created spaces for experimentation and peer learning, including the Staff Academy and the Education Lab. Building on the experiences of other leading alliances in this area, this session asks how educational innovation can move beyond individual projects and highly engaged educators to become part of mainstream teaching across the Alliance, and how these instruments should evolve in the next phase.
- What makes an innovative teaching practice transferable beyond its original course, discipline or group of educators?
- What support, recognition and incentives do academics need to adopt and sustain new approaches?
- What should be coordinated at alliance level, and where is institutional flexibility essential?
- How can we tell when an innovation has become normal teaching practice rather than a project?
From pilot to practice. Starting from a real teaching innovation, groups identify the barriers, enabling conditions and responsibilities needed to implement it at four levels. The results will inform an INGENIUM roadmap for scaling educational innovation.
- Level 1 Educator
- Level 2 Programme or faculty
- Level 3 University
- Level 4 Alliance
