Report about the conference

Next to my work as a PhD student I start to meet different kind of people and it is interesting to see how much changed in such a short time: I make new contacts and can so hopefully build up new kind of friendships. I meet people twice a week at the Dojo, during my lectures and seminars at university and through teaching some German in exchange to get some Japanese lessons (also 2x a week)...this is so much fun and at the moment I am quite involved in the things.
But I think my day today was also really useful because I met a new professor of the faculty of architecture and we talked about the possibilities of teaching the Undergraduates in Architecture which I really want to do to gain some more experience and confidence in this. A few weeks ago I proposed some ideas for a workshop session and finally she told me today that she would be happy to invite me to a workshop week in february. And so I have to organise now the 3 workshops and some lectures ...I really like to teach and it is so much fun to think about different things I can engage the student with ...so lets see how this will develop, I am somehow really nervous about this but also excited to get this new chance and to see how I can get involved in new projects ... until soon, Heide ...PS find later on the proposal for the workshops here!
