Notes on digital consultation hours
You cannot enter the digital consultation room yourself, but will be brought into the room digitally. Please remain online in the waiting room before the video conference consultation.
Note on handwritten documents: For meetings, it is sometimes helpful to have the handwritten notes available in the video conference, you can simply photograph or scan them and import these handwritten notes into LibreOffice Draw , for example, and turn them into a multi-page PDF. Your scanner may also generate a multi-page PDF. Photos of documents can also be shared and discussed in the BBB. Ideally, you should bring documents in PDF format to the consultation so that all participants have a visible basis for the consultation. All participants can also annotate the document in BigBlueButton (handwritten comments). A PDF in landscape format is ideal

General tips for preparing for the oral exam - mind maps
Create a mind map for the oral examination, which on the one hand structures the content and on the other hand shows connections between the subject areas. The mind map can never fully represent what you have learned. It is used for structuring during preparation.
Examples of a mind map
for the exams on functional analysis I and measure theory on topological spaces I.
Submission
The mind map does not have to be handed in. However, you can discuss and improve it with your fellow students.
Didactic examinations
In addition to the sources of subject-didactic literature mentioned in the lecture, you should be able to look at current textbooks and give examples of implementation in the classroom, which you can use to explain the content of the subject-didactic literature.
