The University Management has decided that all examinations on Monday, February 10, 2020 will be cancelled, in reaction to the severe weather warning issued by the Deutscher Wetterdienst DED and in close coordination with the “Unit for Extraordinary Events” of the Städteregion Aachen.
Students who, as a result of storm “Sabine,” have difficulties getting to the University campus will thus not be disadvantaged. All written and other examinations scheduled for Monday will be rescheduled to a later date. All classes and teaching-related events will take place as usual. All university employees have been contacted by email and asked to contact their supervisors in case they encounter any difficulties in reaching their workplace due to the storm.

Spotify und Co. haben ihn schon geliefert – den großen Jahresrückblick 2019 samt all Euren persönlichen Highlights des Jahres.
Nun möchten auch wir Euch die Höhepunkte präsentieren, die uns im Jahre 2019 am meisten bewegt haben. Gleichzeitig können wir so gemeinsam Revue passieren lassen, welche großen Veränderungen Einfluss auf uns hatten. Wir haben „Hello!“ zu RWTHmoodle und „Bye Bye!“ zu L²P gesagt, Social Media in Form von Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn und Youtube ins IT Center geholt, Konferenzen auf der ganzen Welt besucht, Spitzenplätze bei den TOP500 und Green500 sowie die Einweihung des CLAIX-2018 gefeiert. Aber wir haben auch alte Freunde wie CAMPUS-Office in den Ruhestand gehen sehen.

Different and yet linked –RWTHonline and RWTHmoodle
RWTHonline and RWTHmoodle – two different systems, but they are closely linked. In this blog post we want to take a closer look at the connection between these two platforms, at the underlying systematics, and interdependencies.
