At our university, the first semester Physics course lays the technical and methodological foundations for engineering studies. It should have been converted to activating teaching in summer 2020. Important goals associated with this change should also be incorporated online: Arousing curiosity, experiencing a positive error culture, and providing confirmation. Considering local circumstances, we decided on the following implementation based on JiTT and PI: Each week was dedicated to one topic. For each, students received a reading assignment, associated learning objectives, and a test including a mandatory open question. Subsequently, students worked on learning modules containing videos (explanations, experiments), interactive questions, tasks, PhET simulations etc. In a weekly recitation, tasks and remaining questions were discussed. The biggest advantage for students was the constant availability of content. This mitigated bandwidth problems, supported exam preparations, and allowed balancing family, work, corona and study life. Advantages for instructors included a more structured presentation, the possibility to introduce additional materials, and the (necessary) individual contact to students through feedback on the open questions. Problems included a high workload for instructors, the need for more instructors to be well-versed with the content, and heightened challenges for shifting from traditional to activating teaching. Taking into account all constraints, this implementation of online teaching is the best option for students. In the future, the learning modules can support students with different personal needs.enhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/Online instructional modulesPhysics educationJust-in-Time TeachingPeer InstructionErziehung, Schul- und BildungswesenTechnikIngenieurwissenschaftenConference Paper10.15480/882.4037https://www.sefi.be/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/SEFI49th-Proceedings-final.pdf10.15480/882.4037Other
