Since 2021, the DigiTaL project at Leuphana has been working on advancing the digitalisation of university teaching. The teaching and learning formats developed over the past three years are published in publications, Open Educational Resources (OER) and other formats to facilitate the transfer into practice and offer sustainable solutions.
