Now It’s Your Turn!#
First task: Develop your course concept#
Take the next 50 minutes to sketch a first concept for your own course. Focus especially on didactic aspects: not just what you want to teach, but how and why. The following guiding questions can help:
What should students know or be able to do at the end of my course?
How can I align my content and teaching methods with the skills, needs, and expectations of my target audience?
How can I organize my content clearly and logically (e.g. modules, chapters)?
Where can I include opportunities for reflection, review, or guided support?
Which interactive or hands-on elements (e.g., quizzes, code cells, exercises, multimedia) could actively engage learners?
How will I provide feedback or guide students’ learning throughout the course?
What potential challenges might arise (technical, motivational, cognitive), and how can I prepare for them?
Tip
Keep it simple! Your first concept can be a rough draft — you can refine it later when you start building your website.
Afterwards, we will come together, and you’ll have the chance to share your ideas and get feedback.
Second task: Build your course website#
Now that you have drafted your course concept, it’s time to start building your own course website.
In the next 50 minutes, please:
Use our Quick Setup Guide to help you through the process step-by-step.
Start adding your first pages and structure to your site — even small steps count as great progress!
Don’t hesitate to ask if you get stuck — I am here to support you!
Afterwards, we’ll come back together for a wrap-up and feedback session, where you can share your experiences and ask any final questions.
