Since online communication among students or between students and lecturers is becoming increasingly important, there is a need for a unified platform in which information of all kinds can be exchanged. In addition to virtual meetings, all documents required for the courses should be available.
In addition to classes the Teams platform offers the potential to become a central hub for information about whats going on in the school, like event information, publication of opening times, news, etc. in addition to links apartment & job exchange. As everybody is already using the platform for their classes, all the information is just one click away, making it easier to connect with each other.
=== Information Messaging Service<br /> ===
During our research in combination with the experiences we have gained over the last months of the corona pandemic, we have come to the point that the main problem in our university is information and information exchange. After talking to our friends and colleagues we have ascertained that about half of all the problems and misconceptions could have been avoided if we had a working and constantly updated information service.
The messaging service of our choice is WhatsApp, due to its extensive use in our university. The implementation of such a service would look similar to online newsletters. Students can sign up and get information referring to the newsletters’ purpose.
For example, there would be a newsletter concerning exams. By subscribing to this newsletter, students will be informed if a test is coming up. Of course, this service is continuously enhanceable (generate new newsletters aso.).
