DIDAKTIK & LEHRE
Videos as a means for sustainable learningMCI Learning Solutions are currently working on the production of a video series for and with the Biotechnology & Food Engineering Department. Following our motto ‘it takes a video to learn’ we are focusing on important and basic processes and procedures that are essential for working in a laboratory. The video series allows students to access significant safety information at any time and as often as they like.
Get in touch in case you have similar ideas for a video series for learning. We are looking forward to hearing from you!
