E-Learning Roundtable

Sharing Experiences and Networking

Find out which concepts, methodological approaches, and tools in the field of digital teaching and learning are successfully used in other departments. Let yourself be inspired and take the opportunity to exchange ideas with colleagues.

Open Format

The “E-Learning Roundtable” is an open format in which those active and interested in E-Learning from the TU Darmstadt and other Hessian universities can participate (within the network HessenHub ).

Some dates are also open to European colleagues from the UNITE context.

Our “E-Learning Roundtable” offers regular opportunities to share experiences and get inspirations for digital teaching.

Each meeting focuses on a specific topic related to digital teaching. One or more inputs are given by instructors, students, or staff who report on their experiences or planned projects in this field. There is also sufficient time for questions and to share further experiences.

Currently, the E-Learning roundtable takes place online.

E-Learning Roundtable: Dates in the Summer Semester 2024

3-4:30 p.m.: Dr. Maria Theresa Meßner (TU Darmstadt) and Christian Buschmann (GU Frankfurt)

Simulation games offer a wide range of possibilities for various subjects to teach complex learning content in a hands-on way. They can be conducted in analog, hybrid, or digital formats. Increasingly, digital elements are found in all phases of the simulation game: from Moodle learning packages in the preparation phase to digital platforms for supporting the (analog) play phase, as well as digital tools in the reflection phase.

At the Roundtable, Dr. Maria Theresa Meßner (TU Darmstadt) and Christian Buschmann (Goethe University Frankfurt) share practical examples of integrating digital elements in the use of simulation games in teaching. After an introduction to the simulation game method, examples of digitally supported forms follow, along with a discussion on the limits and possibilities.
