Course Formats

Live-Lecture/Video-Lecture

In the "Live Lectures", the instructor presents the lecture content live. All participants should adhere to the 
scheduled times. In contrast, the "Video Lectures" are available as videos and can be watched at different
times and repeatedly.

The videos are offered in various resolutions and sizes so that everyone has access, even with a low data
rate. The live sessions are streamed using BigBlueButton. We have a room designated for all events:

All participants are muted and can virtually raise their hand to speak. Then, they can be unmuted with their
microphone activated.

Assignment (self-guided/supported)

The assignments represent the practical engagement with the lecture content. All participants should ideally
be able to solve the tasks independently. For certain periods, we also offer supported assignments, during
which instructors are available for technical questions.
