AI in higher education
A Course from LLC+CTL
This blended-learning course aims to consciously develop students’ AI skills through teaching. We will also explore how assessment can be effectively designed in the age of AI. The course consists of an online kick-off meeting, a self-study component (approx. 5–7 hours), two face-to-face sessions and a transfer phase.
The kick-off session will take place on 1st of July 2026. You will have the summer to familiarise yourself with the subject matter.

Accessible digital exams and the GAAD
A course from Bielefeld University and other materials
As Inclusion Month in May has just come to an end and GAAD (Global Accessibility Awareness Day) has also recently taken place, we would like to recommend this Moodle course from Bielefeld University on the topic of “Accessible digital exams”. Here you will find everything you need to know about accessible e-exams and how to implement them.
The three centres of excellence at NRW universities take part in GAAD every year and offer excellent resources, which you are welcome to view here: Click here for the NRW universities’ GAAD materials
