Dear students,

As announced, the presentation of the (project) seminar modules will take place on Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m. (sharp). We will begin at 6 p.m. with the presentation of the seminars. At 7 p.m., we will continue with the project seminars. I will start each section with a general information block.

The following interactive Hedge-Doc Pad already contains information about the seminars and project seminars for the coming semester. Please use the Pad to find out more about what is on offer and to ask questions. Please note that the document is currently still being edited and information may be added. Of course, the pad will remain open after the presentation date (for questions). However, the time slots for questions on the presentation evening itself are very limited.

Dear students,

the exam period is just around the corner, and many of you are already well underway with your preparations. To support you in preparing for your exams on campus, we have opened additional study spaces for you.

With immediate effect, in addition to the library spaces, rooms 032 to 034 as well as room 020 in Leo 3 are available for you to use.

The rooms are already fully accessible without restrictions. Over the coming weeks, we will continue to gradually redesign these study areas to better meet your needs in the long term.

We wish you a successful and productive exam period!

Best regards,
Lena

Liebe Studierende, 

wie angekündigt, findet heute von 18-20 Uhr (s.t.) die Vorstellung der Wahlpflichtmodule statt. Wir beginnen um 18 Uhr mit der Vorstellung der Vertiefungsmodule (PO 2018) und Seminare (PO 2022). Ab 19 Uhr geht es dann weiter mit den Projektseminaren. Zu Beginn starte ich jeweils mit einem allgemeinen Infoblock.

Im folgenden interaktiven Hedge-Doc Pad finden Sie bereits Informationen zu den Vertiefungsmoulen/ Seminaren und Projektseminaren im kommenden Semester. Bitte nutzen Sie das Pad, um sich intensiv über die Angebote zu informieren und auch Fragen zu stellen. Bitte beachten Sie, dass das Dokument aktuell ggfs. noch bearbeitet wird und Informationen dazu kommen können. Natürlich bleibt das Pad auch nach dem Vorstellungstermin (für Fragen) offen. Am Vorstellungsabend selber sind die Zeitfenster für Fragen jedoch sehr eng bemessen.

Hey all,

as the exams are moving closer, I wanted to invite you to the next live session on effective studying on Monday, 19 January, 4 pm (c.t.) to 6 pm in Leo 18.

I envision the session to start with a quick recap of effective study methods at the beginning of the session, while the bigger part is spent with getting your hands dirty by applying the methods to the topics covered in your next exams.
As most of the study methods are simple—though not intuitive—this session should also be valuable for students new to this topic. Nevertheless, I would see the primary purpose of the session in the accountability it provides than the knowledge it conveys. Not the understanding of what to do, but the disciplined execution and making it a habit, is the main challenge. This session can be a stepping stone in your learning journey. It is suitable for students of all semesters and all studies (so although it is an offering by the Information Systems institute, feel free to bring your friends).

Here are some sources to get you started in the meantime:

• LearnWeb course by me covering foundational topics (like illusions of knowing and desirable difficulties) and effective techniques (like retrieval, spacing, and variation). Available as slides and videos.
• Book "Make it Stick: The Science of Successful Learning". Available online for free via ULB; quite easy read with lots of anecdotes and examples.
• Video on active recall (aka. retrieval, THE study method you should definitely be doing) by Ali Abdaal (my first point of contact with the topic of effective studying)
• Video on spaced repetition (aka. spacing) by Ali Abdaal

If you have any questions, please contact me personally at sligensa@uni-muenster.de.

I wish you a smooth start for the year 2026 and look forward to seeing you in two weeks!
Sven

Dear students, 

As usual, we are already starting to plan for the coming semester, and so the presentations of the elective modules (seminars and project seminars) for the 2026 summer semester are scheduled for January. 

The Master's modules will be presented on Thursday, January 22, from 6 to 8 p.m. (sharp) via Zoom. As always, the application period for the seminars and project seminars will begin after the presentation. Information on this will also be provided during the presentation.

Further information and the Zoom access details will follow!

Best regards, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,

Lena
