Studying on your terms: your digital study tools
Your IU distance learning programme allows you to study whenever, wherever and however you want. How that works? Thanks to innovative tools you can access from any place in the world! You can study successfully besides having a job, a family and other projects.
Digital study scripts
Your study script divides all contents and study goals into lessons according to didactical crieria. Each lesson is made up of several study cycles. This allows your to work through the content at your own pace. In addition to your study script in PDF-format, you can access an innovative e-book version that allows for digital notes and features interactive self-testing.
Study videos
You just can’t grasp some topics “on paper”? We get it! That’s why we made helpful study videos for you in which your teacher explains key terms, concepts, formulas and case studies from your script in a nutshell – or sometimes in more detail. The idea is to visualise course contents and improve your learning outcome.
Revision books
Selected courses offer revision books. These books contain a list of questions that help you prepare for your exam. A revision book includes transfer tasks at different levels of difficulty that are very practice-oriented. Your teachers will be happy to answer any question via our communication platform.
Deepening knowledge together: your virtual live formats
In selected courses, we offer virtual live formats via video-call. You can exchange views directly with teachers and fellow students to deepen your knowledge. Our live formats are completely optional – you can access recordings of the sessions via your online campus.
Interactive courses*
Our interactive courses allow you to deepen your script-based knowledge under the guidance of practically experienced teachers, ask questions directly and prepare for your exam together with your fellow students. The sessions take place in the evening and are compatible with most working hours.
* Interactive courses will be optionally available for all script courses with a written exam. Starting November 2021, the concept will be gradually rolled out to IU study programmes.
Intensive learning units (learning sprints)
In selected courses, we offer you intensive learning units, also referred to as learning sprints. These sprints get you ready for your exam in only four weeks: You work through your course script together with your fellow students at high speed and solve tasks in small groups. In certain modules, you solidify what you’ve learnt with intensive live tutorials and so-called “tasks of the day”.
Connection platforms & live consultation
Various networking platforms offer you the opportunity to connect with other students and collect input to improve your learning outcome. Selected courses also offer live consultations with your teachers. Here, you can ask any questions about the course contents, the exam or organising your studies. Your fellow students’ questions can be helpful, too.
