Learning platforms
Learning management systems are an indispensable resource and daily working tool for teachers at colleges and universities. By integrating digital tools and interactive functions, they offer an efficient way of conveying teaching content and supporting learning processes. In Thuringia, Moodle in particular is an established learning management system at universities. With the Virtual Campus Thuringia (VCT), a state-wide Moodle instance is also available that will simplify cross-university teaching and learning.
We would like to support lecturers across all universities in getting to know the various functions/possibilities of Moodle better and integrating them into their teaching in a didactically meaningful way.
