Abstract
The nationwide joint research project “ZEITLast” aims to analyze the workload of students. Within this project the Ilmenau University of Technology will conduct a case study in three engineering courses of study. The focus is to identify possible temporal and teaching-based factors of stress and find methods of rearranging teaching methods and lesson plans to decrease the study workload. Particularly, the project is characterized by its method of detailed temporal data.
