Didactics
The Didactics research group at the Department of Informatics
About the research group
The Didactics research group at the Department of Informatics is a team of like-minded educators and researchers dedicated to effective and engaging learning within informatics. Our group employs learning design principles and analytics to achieve an effective and inclusive learning environment. We believe that teaching computer science is not just about coding and theories; it's about understanding the experience students are facing, and translating those experiences through research into new forms of teaching.
What is didactics to us?
We take a wide interpretation of the didactics term to cover any situation that requires communication of knowledge we have in computer science to an audience beyond, whether that be
- University courses for students both in CS and outside
- Collaborations with colleagues across the university
- Collborations with schools
- Links to local enterprises, private companies
