This year, the TURN Conference 2026 will take place at the Bauhaus University Weimar. TURN26 is aimed at education enthusiasts from the DACH region who want to not only discuss higher education, but also shape it – in a transdisciplinary, cooperative and international way. Teachers and students from various disciplines and types of higher education institutions, teaching assistants, university administrators, representatives of higher education research and higher education policy, as well as social actors and practice partners are cordially invited.
TURN26 in Weimar invites the entire German higher education landscape to experience scenographies of learning that connect the head, heart and senses. With a consistent focus on learning experience design, the conference brings project-based, transformative teaching formats, bold didactics and inspiring learning environments to life and shows how students can become co-creators of education.
Experiential Learning ist the main focus of the TURN Conference in September 2026 in Weimar. How do you turn an experience into sustainable learning? Share your experiences in four tracks: from practical formats to student participation and individual learning paths to innovative learning spaces.
University lecturers, students, university educators and university administrators are invited to participate.
Submission deadline: 28 February 2026
