II. Pedagogisch Project • Programma
– Belang geïntegreerd programma voor gegroepeerde studenten – Belang van coördina.e en interface • Coordina.ng Ins.tu.on (VUB) , Coordinator, Local Coordinators • Persoonlijke investering van gemo.veerde professoren
– Gedeelde sterke visie (stroomlijning, mission statement) • Grondige voorbereiding • Samenwerking, interna.onale teambuilding: boardmee.ngs
• Doceren aan interna.onale studentengroepen – Op gelijk niveau brengen van de studenten
• brede intake en interna.onale spreiding • intensieve introduc.e-‐ semester • Aandacht voor samenwerking tussen studenten
– Veldwerk: steden zijn de cases, veel excursies en bezoeken – Belang sociaal programma: welkom, etentjes, bespreking leefervaringen
II. Pedagogisch Project • Iedereen ter plekke krijgen, op .jd is soms problema.sch • Lesgeven aan een interna.onale groep en interdisciplinaire groep = uitdaging – Belang veel debat en discussie – Groepswerk met doordachte samenstelling – Talenten bank • Studenten in 4Ci.es – Nood aan ‘rode draad’ doorheen semesters en verschillende universiteiten: het “grote verhaal” en de intellectuele uitdaging – Thesisverdediging voor nieuwe groep – Alumni-‐netwerk

II. Pedagogisch Project
Dus: Kwaliteit hangt vooral af van teambuilding en mission statement bij de eerste lijn Het gaat om intellectueel « pioniersgevoel »
III. Regelgeving Europees, naHonaal en insHtuHoneel • Na.onaal en inter-‐na.onaal kader versus transna.onaal • Programma wordt eerstelijns gemaakt in Europees kader: inpassing in na.onale en ins.tu.onele is de uitdaging, academische staf is de trekker • UNICA/(vice)rectoren mee.ng soms nodig • Consor.um agreement met zes partners moet passen in het ins.tu.oneel kader en na.onaal kader : zeer, zeer moeilijk – Punten, komma’s, woordkeuze,…!
• Afspraken nog grotendeels te maken hierover tussen de deelnemende landen/ accredita.e-‐organen, geen terugval basis, elk programme is een individuele struggle
• Academische standaarden:
– Procedures ( external examiner) – Diverse onderwijsgewoonten:
– quoteren en grading conversion – Assessment criteria

III. Regelgeving Europees, naHonaal en insHtuHoneel • Regelgeving E.U. loopt sterk achter op de geafficheerde ambi.es van interna.onale integra.e (cfr Bologna) – – – – – –
Na.onale bias, controle na.estaat Na.onale accredita.e en visita.e Zelfs geen engelstalige rapporten! Tekort aan transversaliteit ts universiteiten en ts landen Catch 22 situa.es Werkt sterk vertragend en demo.verend

• Erasmus Mundus Master Course: all universi.es recognise 4Ci.es as full master programme, students register in each university, remaining universi.es go through accredita.on
IV. AccreditaHe en diploma • JOINT DIPLOMA? – Joint cer.ficate
• Double/mul.ple/Joint diploma? (exam regula.on & financial distribu.on) 120 ECTS, each ins.tu.on needs 30ECTS: how???? – Lack of degree-‐awarding harmoniza.on among Member States – Complex administra.ve procedures for recogni.on of joint diploma
