Abstract

In the university course „Tutorium zur Physik“ the physics students of TU Darmstadt must keep a learning journal in Mahara to describe their own expertise development. In the students` opinion Mahara needs an enormous amount of time and it is hard to design the journal. The students journalize at odd times and they don’t describe their development very well. To improve the journals, the motivation and the communication about the course, the teachers established a collaborative learning journal, which is written with the software OneNote by Microsoft, at summer semester 2016. OneNote has more technical compabilities to design the journals and the students can annotate each others journals. In the collaborative learning journal the students merge feelings and thoughts about the learning content. In the individual part they reflect their findings and own development similar to the journals in Mahara.
