Moodle

The templates offer teachers the opportunity to create their own course on Moodle in a clearly organised way, are provided with general didactic suggestions and can be filled with individual content.

Two variants are offered:

• Colourful design, interdisciplinary and with topic blocks
• Tile format design, cross-curricular and with topic blocks

Instructions and templates can be found here.

The learning management system Moodle is all too often seen as a necessary evil - if it needs to be intuitive or stylish, people prefer to use (not necessarily data protection-compliant) solutions from third-party providers. But that doesn't have to be the case, as some teachers are already proving with innovative Moodle courses. To honour their commitment, ZLL and PROKODIL, in cooperation with the IKMZ, organised a competition for which you could nominate your favourite courses.

Students and lecturers were allowed to make suggestions: We needed the following information by email to prokodil@europa-uni.de with the following information: Course name, name of the lecturer and in which semester the course had taken place.

Thank you very much for the numerous submissions! The winners have been announced

We congratulate:

1. Didem Leblebici (Academic Assistant at the Professorship of Language Use and Migration)
2. Elizabeth Neumann (Academic Assistant at the Professorship of Popular Cultures)
3. Theresa Gessler (Junior Professor at the Professorship of Comparative Politics)
