Whether face-to-face, hybrid or online. Digital tools can be a useful addition to teaching.
Interested parties can find a comprehensive annotated list of digital tools for teaching here.

Some of them are supported within the university framework, some are only applicable under certain conditions.

We offer all lecturers advice on the handling and usability of digital tools.

After two years of the pandemic and online teaching, the university has returned to face-to-face teaching. However, there is still a need, and often a necessity, to be able to take part in events online. One possible solution is to organise events in hybrid form. In this format, participation is possible both online and in person. To support this, mobile equipment for hybrid teaching was purchased as part of the project, which we are happy to make available to lecturers.

The following is a brief overview of the available settings:

2 Obsbot Tiny webcams with tripod and accessories
2 Holyland Lark Duo 150 wireless microphones
2 Jabra Speak 750 conference speakers
2 JBL Flip 5 mobile speakers
1 Meeting Owl 3 conference system

Possible application scenarios can be found here.

We can also provide a Catchbox throw microphone set .

In addition to the mobile settings, we also offer a Yamaha conference room system, which enables sound transmission in smaller rooms.

If you are interested in using the settings or would like to find out more about them, you can find further information in the internal area.

A wide variety of teaching concepts have now been developed that utilise digital elements. Be it online, hybrid or face-to-face.

Examples include:

Flipped classroom

In the flipped classroom concept, activities that are more commonly associated with face-to-face teaching, such as lectures, are swapped with those of the self-study phase. Students can, for example, acquire basic knowledge independently at home with the help of digital materials such as instructional videos, podcasts or online texts. The face-to-face event is then used for joint consolidation and discussion of the course content. The concept is flexible and can be used both in individual sessions and across an entire course.


Blended learning

The aim of blended learning is to combine methods of classroom teaching and e-learning in such a way that the advantages of both forms of teaching can be optimally utilised.

Further information and tips for practical implementation can be found here.


Mobile learning

With the triumphant advance of mobile devices in everyday life, there are many opportunities to utilise them in teaching. It is not only possible to learn away from the lecture theatre and home PC, but also to use mobile devices in face-to-face courses, for example to use survey tools.

Basically, mobile learning encompasses all systems that allow learners to access distributed databases and communicate with each other without having to rely on wired power and communication networks (Karran et al., 2003)
