DESCRIPTION:# Overview\n\nThis course introduces trainers in the life scien
 ces to learning principles\, training techniques\, lesson\, session\, cour
 se\, and material design as well as assessment and feedback. It offers gui
 dance\, ideas and tips for designing training/teaching\, development and d
 elivery on training activities\, all based on research-driven educational 
 principles. Examples and discussions will also focus on the challenges pre
 sented by academic teaching.\n\nThis course has been developed for and by 
 trainers in bioinformatics but is suitable for all trainers and educators 
 in higher education. It is part of the [ELIXIR-GOBLET Train-the-Trainer pr
