Project visit to the DigiLLab at TUM in Munich

@Vocational- and Business Education

Sub-project 13 in the WÖRLD joint project is picking up speed. The first face-to-face meeting between the two locations took place in Munich on September 14. The focus was on getting to know the team, which is one of two sub-projects working across locations. In addition to Prof. Dr. Manuel Förster (Technical University of Munich, TUM) and Prof. Dr. Michael Goller (University of Kassel), Theresa Bauer, Maxi Brausch-Böger and Dr. Simone König-Ziegler are reinforcing the team on behalf of TUM, while Verena Pfeiffer is working for the University of Kassel.

The team of colleagues from TUM guided the guests expertly through the heart of the project - a digital teaching and learning lab (DigiLLab)divided into four areas and connected to the university's competence center digIT4.0@TUM competence center. In addition to Smart Home, the Baker Space and Health 4.0, there is also an Industrial Space "Industry 4.0". This is where the project team wants to start and digitally integrate this area into further education and training for (prospective) teachers.

The aim of the project is to jointly design, test and evaluate further training events that are to be methodically and didactically, but also in terms of content, designed on the subject of the digitalization of work and Industry 4.0. Their content should be directly applicable in practice for teachers, but also encourage them to develop their own teaching sequences. A challenge that the team around the two researchers is happy to take on.

Marian Thiel de Gafenco from the WÖRLD project management team provided valuable input during the project meeting. In Munich, he presented SAP4School, a way of illustrating ERP systems in the classroom. The brief meeting at TUM was greatly enriched by the in-depth discussion. The project will now continue with the design of the project and virtual project meetings. "We may have a tight schedule, but we also have a very competent, motivated team," says Prof. Dr. Goller. They will meet again in person in Kassel in November, when the next joint meeting of the WÖRLD project will take place.
