Activity Etherpad

With the Etherpad all course participants can work collaboratively on one text page at the same time. The text is synchronized during writing.

Possible scenarios are: joint writing of a protocol, brainstorming, collaborative creation and development of documents.

A video tutorial on this topic can be found on our media platform (currently just in German).
