Object Based Teaching and Learning (OBTL) is a powerful learning approach that uses physical objects to actively engage students, stimulate their curiosity and encourage critical thinking. From ancient artifacts, to cultured crystals, to homemade 3D models printed in our Tech Lab; you can always find an appropriate object in the University Library's collection. Through the unique experience of learning with real materials, lectures become not only more lively, but also memorable. Give students the opportunity to see or touch rare objects, works of art and archives up close.
Discover with us how OBTL can add depth, impact and engagement to your lecture. We are happy to advise you on which objects are appropriate for the specific subject you teach. Even if you are not sure what suits your learning goals, we are happy to think along with you.
Yes, I also want to use physical objects in my lectures!
