As the beginning of the winter semester 2022/23 is approaching here in Germany, we are currently in the process of finalizing preparations for our teaching activities. This is yet another reason why I am dealing with physics education these days and therefore I would like to share a few more interesting resources that I stumbled upon.
This blog is a platform for discussions on physics teaching in higher education. What are effective teaching strategies and creative ways to arouse students' enthusiasm for physics? A special focus lies on condensed matter physics and materials science. Most of the content is based on my personal experience, but I also try to offer a broader perspective of physics teaching.

Some helpful resources on teaching in higher education
This blog is dealing with teaching physics (and materials science) in higher education. I started the blog a while ago because this topic constitutes a personal matter and I see a lot of potential in improving physics teaching and learning in the future. Not only with regard to physics, teaching in higher education is constantly evolving and transforming. This is why I believe that it is crucial to share and exchange our ideas about novel approaches, stories of success, and biggest failures in the context of teaching and learning.
