Learning opportunities

Math and STEM workshop

Wednesdays: 1:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Thursdays: for students from 2:00 p.m. and for everyone from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
K 104, Didactics Center in Building K

In our math and STEM workshop, you can work alone or in a group with other students and interested parties on mathematical and STEM topics and tasks. Our experts are available to answer your questions about mathematics or math-related subjects such as physics, computer science or electrical engineering. You will also receive brief impulses on exciting STEM topics and tools: from MatLab and LaTeX to clear explanations of the difference between power and voltage.

The LearningLab also provides you with moderated workspaces, digital tools and prototype materials, while the Immersive LearningLab allows you to train presentations or experience technical scenarios in a realistic way with the help of VR, for example. You can also use the film and podcast studio for the media implementation of your ideas, with the support of experienced media didactics experts.

Immersive Learning Workshop

Wednesdays: 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Didactics Center in Building K

Immersive learning means immersing yourself in virtual learning worlds. In these digital environments, dangerous, difficult to access or fictitious situations can be realistically simulated - safely, under control and repeatable as often as you like. This allows you to experience three-dimensional scenarios, interact with them and understand and consolidate complex relationships in a vivid way.

Current applications developed in-house include the virtual electrolysis plant and the RWU Talk app, which can be used in the Applied Psychology degree course, for example, and can be individually adapted to various conversation scenarios. In our open immersive learning workshop, you can try out these applications for yourself, develop new ideas and plan possible application scenarios.

AI workshop

Wednesdays: 3:30 p.m.- 5:00 p.m.
LAB4DTE and IKI in Building E

In the open AI workshop, you have the opportunity to deepen your own ideas on the topics of artificial intelligence, data science or robotics or to gain initial insights into these areas. You can work individually or in groups with other students and interested parties on practical projects. Various labs, such as the robotics lab or the business intelligence lab, are available to you. You will also receive support from professors and researchers from the Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IKI), who will help you with your questions.

The workshop is ideal for anyone who is curious about AI, robotics and other future technologies - regardless of whether you already have concrete ideas or would simply like to get a taste of them.

Didactics & e-learning workshop

Tuesdays: 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Didactics Center in Building K

Advice also available via Moodle.
Further information in the course Hochschuldidaktik*LIVE* in Moodle.

Especially at the beginning of your studies, the abundance of necessary tools such as Moodle, BBB & Co. can seem a bit overwhelming or the submission of an important task via the respective online portal simply does not want to work. You are welcome to visit the e-learning workshop if you have these and similar problems.

I will also be happy to help you with your learning and show you, for example, how you can use certain techniques and media to increase your learning success and get a better grip on learning in general.
