Huber researched his own teaching in the sense of the SoTL and can use the knowledge gained in this way for future teaching development processes. His teaching is strongly based on the "Shift from Teaching to Learning", and he also follows the concept of "Constructive Alignment". Furthermore, he bases his teaching on the principles of the "Principles for Responsible Management Education" in order to promote sustainable management education at the Faculty of Economics. Huber has been professionalizing since he began teaching at Chemnitz University of Technology and successfully completed the certificate program at the Saxony University Didactic Center. His courses were regularly evaluated as excellent.

MOS poem for the business game

On the occasion of our rescheduled business game in SS22, creative peak performances developed, which culminated in the first MOS poem on the business game. This historically important work is hereby presented to an interested public. May it inspire further generations!

What's wrong with jeleeschn?

We can't get out
of this green house.

When the environment bothers us,
we are all outraged.

Every period the same porridge.
At the end of the day there is a lot of screaming.
Communication goes past each other.
But we won't be there tomorrow.

Even in the rules, no one has a plan
and major problems are simply dismissed.

But we don't want to red, blue or yellow
because we like it so much in house green.

Now we're in the mood for beer.
Unfortunately we have to wait until four.

Nevertheless, we learned a lot
from this wonderful business game.

PS:
Please no destructive feedback from Prof. Hüsig.
Because: Writing the poem was very idle.
