Digital Teaching Hand in Hand (DLH)

Are you interested in digital teaching and learning methods and would like to actively support the creation and development of digital teaching resources? Digital Teaching Hand in Hand offers participants the chance to familiarize themselves with fundamental media-didactic concepts and methods in a seminar setting. As a student assistant, you can help teaching staff to integrate digital teaching resources in their courses.

In addition, two specific academic success projects are coordinated at the ZiLL:

1) The Orientation Platform Research & Practice offers students insights into practice through excursions, project weeks, discussion rounds, a podcast and many other offers.

2) The project Orientation Program offers a program to help prospective students choose the right study program.

3) The Digital Teaching Hand in Hand (DLH) project offers student assistants the opportunity to aid teaching staff in designing their digital teaching plans.
