We believe that knowledge is best acquired and deepened when it can literally be lived and experienced, e.g. through business games, current case studies, blended learning, excursions or practical presentations by exciting speakers from the worlds of business, culture or politics. Lectures are not about &#8220;reading out&#8221; but about teaching. The knowledge imparted is primarily an orientation knowledge that is expanded and developed through the students&#8217; own activities.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Teaching and atmosphere at Karlshochschule<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lehre und Atmosph\u00e4re an der Karlshochschule International University\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vQSK1lWOFSs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Some students and a professor describe the learning and teaching atmosphere at Karlshochschule &#8211; at least as they perceive it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>The six semesters of a Bachelor&#8217;s degree course at the Karls can be divided into <strong>three levels<\/strong>, each of which represents a personal development step:<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. instruction<\/h3>\n\n<p>At the very beginning there is the orientation in a completely new environment for most students &#8211; i.e. the still unfamiliar life and work at a university. This is the level of instruction at which students learn to act confidently in an unfamiliar environment, incorporate new roles into their repertoire, and define and pursue goals.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. construction<\/h3>\n\n<p>In the second year, the main focus is on the application (construction) of what has been learned. The focus here is on dealing creatively and constructively with the knowledge acquired and understanding one&#8217;s own personality. This means that students bear full responsibility for the success of the teamwork during the project phases and prove themselves in the role of the doer. During their stay abroad, they question and reconstruct their role in unfamiliar territory and gain confidence and openness. When they return to Germany, they experience a new moment of amazement when their familiar surroundings suddenly appear in a completely new light and things that were once taken for granted no longer seem at all obvious.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. reflection<\/h3>\n\n<p>Towards the end of the course, the focus shifts to reflection. This is where all the experience, knowledge and skills acquired during your studies can be put to good use. The students have learned to endure uncertainty, to move confidently in foreign cultures and to communicate their goals and visions clearly. However, it soon becomes clear that the learning has only just begun.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:20%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"167\" src=\"https:\/\/karlshochschule.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/Tillmann-Wiegand-RuhrTriennale.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-416\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:80%\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>At Karlshochschule I was able to experience that the open and communicative teaching concept particularly encourages students&#8217; interest and willingness to discuss.
