Scenarios for Your Project
Scenarios
DEVELOP
The process of learning new content is often characterized by passive knowledge acquisition, whether through watching videos, reading texts, or listening to lectures.
STACK expands the possibilities for active, comprehension-oriented learning.It allows for the integration of interactive applets, calculation steps with feedback, and theoretical content.
Scenarios
PRACTISE
Detailed and well-thought-out feedback can effectively support students during practice sessions. STACK offers a wide range of options for this purpose. For example, common errors can be automatically detected and reported back to students along with appropriate guidance.
The random generation of task variables also allows students to practice the same type of task repeatedly using the exact same STACK question.
Scenarios
CHECK
In exam settings, a transparent and consistent grading of student responses is crucial. Using STACK in learning management systems such as Moodle enables automatic grading based on clearly defined answer keys. This allows for the targeted awarding of partial credit and the identification and consideration of subsequent errors. As a result, STACK is particularly helpful in digital exams with large cohorts.
This is how your digital tasks are created
After receiving your inquiry, we will contact you to discuss your requirements and ideas, and then create prototypes that we will refine together.
Once a binding contract is in place, we will continue to develop the project step by step and finalize it in close consultation with you.
Free of charge and available to everyone
Our service is free of charge for all members of German public universities.
To give as many instructors as possible access to high-quality assignments, all assignments developed for you are published under a Creative Commons license and made available through a repository.

FAQ
Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our services. If you have any further questions, we would be happy to assist you personally.
For which subject areas can tasks be developed?
We develop assignments for the entire STEMfield (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). Among others,we have already created assignments for the subjects Mathematics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Economics umgesetzt.
Do I need to have prior experience with digital projects to take advantage of this offer?
No. This offer is specifically designed for educators with no prior experience. We provide support from the initial idea through to implementation.
What is STACK and what are its benefits?
STACK is an assessment system that is particularly well-suited for math, science, and engineering problems. Thanks to its integrated computer algebra system, it enables the precise identification of errors and provides personalized feedback. Additionally, interactive JSXGraph or GeoGebra applets can be embedded in STACK.
Key Features
- Randomisation ➔ Endless practice with structurally identical tasks, reducing the risk of cheating
- Adaptivity ➔ Tasks are tailored to learners’ prior knowledge, enabling adaptive learning paths
- Automatic correction ➔ No staff required
- Automatic feedback
- individual → misconceptions can be identified and addressed
- multimodal → Text feedback, video feedback, animated feedback, etc.
5. Representational integration ➔ Dynamic networking of the symbolic with the visual world
6. Interactive ➔ discovery-based and self-regulated learning
7. 100% digital ➔ learning and practice independent of time and place, learning analytics, gamification
8. Moodle and ILIAS is based ➔ integrable into any lecture
Are other question types used in addition to STACK?
In principle, we also offer the implementation of basic Moodlequestion types (e.g. multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, drag and drop); however, due to its pedagogical capabilities and technical flexibility , we primarily rely on STACK.
How long will it take to develop my tasks?
This depends on the scope and the complexity of the project.. We will coordinate the exact timeline and the details of the work with you personally.
How much input is required on my part?
You provide the subject matter expertise. To help us develop tailored assignments, we need materials such as worksheets, sample solutions, background information, and details on the expected prior knowledge. We contribute our expertise in the pedagogical design and technical implementation of digital assignments.
