Video conference applications enable you to communicate directly with two or up to several hundred participants through video and audio transmission via the Internet. It is also possible to share screen contents, e.g. for documents and presentations, as well as chats for questions, answers and voting, virtual rooms for division into working groups and many other useful functions.
Currently, the following video conference applications are available directly via your HSB user account:
We offer trainings and support for these video conference applications, you can find our current workshop-programme here (German only). Additional information and helpful materials are provided in our AULIS-room "Hochschul- und Mediendidaktik" (German only).
ZOOM not only offers video conferencing, but also an online whiteboard with a wide range of functions. It is not necessary to be ‘live’ in a meeting to use the whiteboard; it can also be used asynchronously, for example to include tasks until the next meeting.
This allows you to gather several working groups or steps on one board and ‘move’ from one step to the next. ZOOM Whiteboard also offers many templates for mind maps and visualisation, allows the integration of videos and files, and much more.
Zoom is available to all lecturers, staff and students via their university account.
We offer workshops (German only) to help you get started. Additional information and helpful materials are provided in our AULIS-room "Hochschul- und Mediendidaktik" (German only). For support in English please contact us per mail at zll-support@hs-bremen.de.
LimeSurvey is a simple, fast and anonymous online survey tool that you can use for your teaching. With LimeSurvey you can create and publish surveys for research or teaching without much prior knowledge. LimeSurvey offers you a wide range of functions: there are many different question types to choose from, preconditions allow you to design complex surveys and the survey results can be exported (e.g. Excel or SPSS) so that they can be analyzed.
Lecturers and lecturers at the HSB can obtain a license for LimeSurvey from the university. Please send a short e-mail to zll-support@hs-bremen.de. Your students can participate anonymously in surveys that you create yourself without having to register.
If you want to use LimeSurvey so that your students can create surveys themselves, then your students can also obtain a free license. Requests from students to zll-support@hs-bremen.de must contain the following information:
Further information on LimeSurvey can be found in our AULIS room.

The MMCC provides the HSB's video server at the Internet address video.hs-bremen.de. There, teachers and employees of the HSB can independently make videos available for streaming. The uploaded videos are automatically converted into MP4 format. Four different ranges can be set for the visibility of the videos on the server. You need a user account for the upload. You can apply for this informally by e-mail.
