Community based digital teaching

Abstract

A common approach to digital teaching is to mimic the classical lecturing in a physical classroom. There are limits to how successful this approach might be in helping students to reach the learning outcomes. However, presenting information on digital platforms have been professionalized by youtubers interacting with internet communities. For two of our courses in electronics we have adapted techniques and methods commonly used by popular youtubers. This has resulted in extremely satisfied students. It is easier to see which learning outcomes are met. It has also increased the amount of communication compared to physical teaching, both between lecturer and students, and among the students themselves.
