Lectures "Open Education Resources with Ukraine"
With the DAAD-funded project Open Education Resources with Ukraine (OER), Leibniz University Hannover is supporting Ukrainian partner universities in continuing and digitizing their teaching offerings in times of crisis. Specialist working groups are jointly creating teaching and learning videos based on open access principles in Biology and the Life Sciences, among other subjects. For the partner university in Hannover, the project offers the opportunity to expand internationalization and scientific cooperation in biological and botanical teaching through open educational materials.
These learning materials were developed at the Institute of Botany, Sulfur Metabolism and Abiotic Stress section, commissioned by Prof. Dr. Jutta Papenbrock.
