The university asks all teachers of the JLU to prepare themselves for a Start of Lectures from April 20th, 2020 to start a semester without classroom attendance and to use the time until then for appropriate preparations. As a first step, please plan at least the first four to six weeks of your courses alternatively, for example with the help of e-learning parts. The Vice President for Studies and Teaching, Prof. Dr. Verena Dolle has set up the "Teaching in the Summer Semester 2020" AG, which mainly supports the dean's offices as well as lecturers in this task in coordination and legal issues.

In response to the current development by Covid-19, all of the JLU's e-learning parties (HRZ, HDK, ZfbK, EmE, DigLL, Teaching 4.0) form the "Team of Experts for Digital Teaching" together. If you have any questions about low-contact teaching formats in preparation for the upcoming summer semester, you can contact the parties in advance by e-mail (hochschuldidaktik@zfbk.uni-giessen.de). Until April 1st, 2020, a needs-based advisory service will be developed and supplemented by telephone or online advice options.
