    THE BASIC IDEA/PROCESS

    1. You will find teacher's name/course from these lists
    2. You will mail to this teacher and ask for a possibility to observe her/his course/teaching.
    Ask for several time options. You can also present yourself by telling your position (" I am professor/lecturer in field X and teach these topics etc.")
    3. The teacher replies and hopefully suggests options.
    4. You together will set the time & course.
    5. You will observe the course either live or online depending on the situation.
    6. After this session, you two could have a short session (e.g. Zoom) where you can ask more/or give constructive feedback/your thoughts what you observed.
    7. You yourself will write a short summary/description each of these outside observations to you personal teaching report (DL 11.12.2020).

    Pls see the report structure in our first session slides. All these outside observations should be done by the end of November.
    In December, all these institutes will have their assessment periods as well, when they do not have "normal" teaching anymore.
