Databases and Information Systems: Teaching

The teaching activities contribute mainly to the BSc/MSc Studies in Applied Computer Science; also students in BSc/MSc Applied Data Science, BSc/MSc Business Informatics/Information Systems, BSc/MSc Mathematical Data Science, Mathematics, etc. attend the Data Non-Science lectures. From 2005-2008, advanced lectures have also been transmitted to TU Clausthal.

General Information on DBIS teaching:

  • In summer term 2020 and winter term 2020/21, all DBIS courses took place as live online courses (see below for detailed information). In most cases, we did live teaching with broadcasting and possible interaction. Usually, we produced live recordings that can be used for asynchronous learning.
    For summer term 2021, we have been informed that it is not allowed to reuse the live recordings from last year because potentially personal data of participants might be displayed.
    As there must be progress towards reusable recordings, we have to reduce live teaching in ST 2021 and WT2021/22. Instead, the recordings from ST2020 and WS2020/21 will be carefully cleaned, and partially re-done, but mostly not with live recordings again.
    See the DBIS Virtual Teaching page for details.
  • All relevant information about the lectures can be found at this Website ("the blue pages"). By this, our materials are publicly available to everybody.
    Note especially, that we do not follow the diverse forums in StupID (these are a severe misdesign - following each of them would require a lot of time. For contacting the teaching persons, e-Mail has been invented in the early 1970s).
  • There is no official enrolment for DBIS lectures (only for seminars and labs). Students may freely decide to attend the lecture. For the lectures, the provided exercises are also not mandatory. Only at the end, for the exams, there is a registration (with FlexNow as far as possible).
