Didactical Implementation

Didactical Implementation
For the concrete implementation you can now rely on your previously elaborated concept. It makes sense to start with small steps and define milestones. Depending on the scope of your project, it can also be useful to work out a rough time schedule for the implementation so that you remain structured and do not take up too much time for individual tasks that may be new to you.
In the following we have compiled some tips that may help you in the implementation phase:
  • Take care to combine digital tools in a sensible way according to the didactic activities and objectives in a coherent overall concept. Think carefully about the actual added value of each tool - maybe some things can be solved more easily. For example: Does it really have to be a complex webinar right away or can you also create similar scenarios with video and audio recordings, chat, forums and interactive exercises?
  • Learners in purely virtual courses need a lot of support, supervision and a fixed contact person. When implementing your own support concept, make sure that you give sufficient space to your own support concept and allow for the time required for this. Keep close contact with your students, communicate a lot and transparently. Helpful tools: Forum, chat, groups, peer-to-peer feedback, etherpad, voting ...
  • With pure online formats, it is all the more important to maintain motivation and to prevent from pure consumer behaviour of students in order to achieve better learning outcomes. Use methods for activation and collaboration. Useful tools: Interactive video, surveys, test, exercise, etherpad, flashcards ...
  • Communicate the time structure of the course, your ideas, expectations and requirements (workload calculation, performance records) regularly, clearly and transparently. Useful tools: Forum with weekly to-dos and tasks, calendar, consultation hours, booking pool
  • Think about the possibility of multiple use of your materials for different formats (learning nuggets are particularly suitable here) and the use of open learning materials (OER). Example: You are giving several lectures in which a certain topic is frequently used? Think about whether you can summarize basic information on the topic and make it available for all lectures. This way you can achieve more with less effort.
  • The production of new materials (e.g. videos) is not always useful. Check possible alternatives (e.g. audio podcasts, texts, existing videos), which may be feasible with less resources. Example: Does it really have to be a complex webinar right away or can you also create similar scenarios with video and audio recordings, chat, forums and interactive exercises?
