Useful Links - Digital Teaching

Structured and Commented Collection of Useful Links:

There is a large number of national and international universities and institutions that have responded very quickly to the ongoing crisis and have put together very good compilations of recommendations (incl. instructions and examples for the use of digital platforms and tools) especially for the special situation of the coming semester.

The Leuphana Teaching Service has structured and commented the following information, concepts, tools and instructions that lecturers can use to compile their teaching efforts.

  • Responses and Best Practices from other Universities
  • Guides for Using Moodle, Zoom, and Mahara (myportfolio)
  • Aids & Tools
