Optimising the University of Hamburg’s E-Learning Programmes with Special Reference to Media Law

In cooperation with the Faculty of Law at the University of Hamburg, the Hans Bredow Institute is working on training and development projects in the field of media law, and also in the area of “blended learning”, that is with the aid of e-learning programmes. Here, a central component are online programmes supporting courses, yet established independently of each other, and to be enlarged and integrated into a platform for a focal area on the university e-learning platform “Blackboard”. The University supports individual intentions in the project in the context of the programmes “Seminars going online” and “Focal areas of the Faculty of Law – supporting Best-Practice”.

Alongside this, the e-learning project “Global Classroom” is offered, in the context of which the Institute has developed an e-learning tool (“Global Classroom”) for the application of virtual forms of teaching in jurisprudence, which is based on a software platform, which has been specially programmed for these cases and further developed since 2002.
