Welcome to the Institute for Interactive Systems (ISy)

The Institute for Interactive Systems (ISy) is one of the competence centers of the TH Lübeck. With about 30 employees, we conduct numerous third-party funded research projects around the development of interactive systems and technologies. One focus is on the topics of digital education, computer-aided communication and cooperation, and human-centered design.

 

Digital education

We develop innovative digital teaching-learning formats, platforms and content for university teaching, training and continuing education. Under "Courses" you will find our research and development platform "Future Learn Lab" and can register for selected courses yourself.

 

Learning Analytics & Artificial Intelligence

We explore and implement cutting-edge technologies in learning analytics and artificial intelligence to enable individualized and adaptive learning. Through data analytics and machine learning, we optimize learning paths to promote learning success.

 

Platform and technology development

We rely on open source technologies and systems to develop intelligent, networked platform services for digital learning and working.

Abstract
The MOOChub is a website that lists well over 700 Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) from German-speaking countries from a total of nine different partners. In order to build such a site automatically, all partners must describe and publicly offer the metadata for their courses in the same way. This article describes the genesis of the idea of a common standard and how it was subsequently developed. The result is an openly licensed, de-facto standard based on  common existing standards, as well as an initial prototype, the MOOChub, where all parnters’ courses can now be searched and found. Finally, this paper outlines the next possible and necessary developments that will further optimise  the interface.
