description This paper is aimed to describe and critically analyze the so-called “TEACH-POT” experience (POT: Provide Opportunities in Teaching) performed at Politecnico di Torino during the last few years. Due to career criteria, the effort and the time spent in teaching is reducing. In order to support and meet each individual professor' expectations towards an improvement in their ability to teach, it is been provided with a mix of opportunities. This means an extremely wide variety of experiences, tools, relationships, from which everyone can draw stimuli to increase the effectiveness of teaching and involvement of the classroom. The activities have three macro ingredients: methodological training, teaching technologies, methodological experiences. A discussion on the findings is proposed based on the data collected through a survey. The impact can be measured into two dimensions: the real impact on lesson redesign, and the discussion with the entire academic community.
