Your Request

The use of digital media in university teaching offers many advantages for lecturers and students - but often also raises new questions for lecturers: What possibilities do I have to support my teaching with digital media? Which legal aspects do I have to consider? Which tools and which methods are best suited for my teaching situation, my target group and my learning/teaching goals? How much time and effort does the use of a particular tool require - and what are the benefits for me and my students?
These are just a few of the questions you (have to) deal with if you want to use digital media in your teaching.
With the E-Learning Lunch Bag Session, we would like to offer you regular opportunities from the winter semester 2018/19 onwards to clarify these and other questions in exchange with colleagues, to share your own experiences and to develop new ideas together with other participants.


Our Service

The E-Learning Lunch Bag Session was set up to give you the opportunity to exchange all your questions and experiences about the use of digital media in university teaching in a relaxed atmosphere. The staff of the "Lehre 4.0" project will be on hand to advise and assist you.


The offer is intended to support you in...
...constructively use of digital media in university teaching.
...realistically assessing the advantages and disadvantages as well as the costs and benefits of using special e-learning tools.
... reflecting and conceiving e-learning/blended learning scenarios together in exchange with (interdisciplinary) colleagues - and applying ideas from different subject areas to your own teaching practice if necessary.

Interactive whiteboards, often called SMART boards, are finding their way into more and more universities and sometimes completely replace the chalkboard and beamer. However, the correct handling of these devices often proves to be a challenge in many respects. The interest and curiosity in interactive and digital blackboards is great, the application scenarios in teaching are versatile but still untested. In this lunch bag session we would like to give you an overview of the devices and their use by presenting the free software Open Sankoré, which can be used freely. In addition, you will have the opportunity to interact with the interactive whiteboard and get inspiration for your university teaching.

Tablet, laptop (or smartphone) required.

Digital accessibility. Digitally supported teaching and learning constantly poses new challenges for teachers and students, but at the same time offers numerous opportunities for participative and inclusive participation in order to make teaching more accessible. Dr. Steffen Puhl, Coordinator for Accessible Study Information Systems and Inclusive IT at the University Computer Center of JLU Giessen, will demonstrate what is important, for example, in the barrier-free design of learning videos, PowerPoint presentations and digital documents so that they are accessible and usable for students with disabilities. We would like to sensitize you to "invisible" hurdles in everyday teaching that students may encounter and show you how to recognize and avoid digital and didactic barriers in web and e-learning offerings.

This event takes place at Hochschulrechenzentrum (HRZ), Room 1, Heinrich-Buff-Ring 44, 35392 Giessen.

Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are considered to be the technology of the future and are increasingly used by companies, especially for the further education and training of their staff. Real work situations can be simulated and special learning scenarios implemented. However, it is still unclear in which direction this technology will develop in the next few years. This workshop would like to give an overview of the current state of the art, previous research results and previous application scenarios. The participants will also have the opportunity to test individual applications in VR/AR. Finally, an outlook on how virtual learning scenarios can be created will be given.
