Nowadays, lecturers rely heavily on digital educational technologies in their work. The Teaching Support Team was created to support lecturers in their use of technology. Our team consists of Student Assistants who are the first line service desk and answer questions via email and telephone, and a group of LTSOs who coordinate the service desk. Together we support a wide range of educational applications and services. We do this by, among other things, updating the TUD Teaching Support website, training and coaching student assistants, and drawing up procedures to answer complex questions from lecturers. We implement changes and optimize supporting processes.

Our department continues to expand thanks to the focus that the TU Delft is putting on quality education and EdTech tooling. We are looking for a colleague who can work on accurately managing the support desk and coordinating daily activities.  More specifically, we are currently looking for someone who has expertise with educational tooling and experience with website development.
