Abstract

THE ESSENCE OF THE HUMANITIES One of the key components determining the entire field of the humanities consists of teaching critical thinking expressed orally and in writing. [...]whatever literary works or languages we work with, ultimately the purpose proves to be to lay the foundation for cultural competence, linguistic skills, research abilities, and writing skills for a constantly changing world. The exchange via online writing thus proved to be a highly innovative method of studying, demanding a high level of concentration and involvement from the professor and the students. Since we emphasize in the humanities in general and in German studies in particular writing skills, this method was successful. Teaching a literature course in German at an upper level via such a chat room proved to be challenging at first, but then it was highly productive because of the intensive writing activities by students and the instructor. Top Hat is also highly useful for taking attendance (once, twice, or three times per class), for quizzes, and for multiple-choice exams. Since questions can be posted so easily online-also during class meetings-students can also be encouraged to get involved in the teaching process themselves by formulating discussion questions for the entire class.

COVID - 19大流行和新技术引发的生产力和创造力
人文学科的本质决定整个人文学科领域的关键组成部分之一是教授口头和书面表达的批判性思维。[…无论我们使用何种文学作品或语言,最终目的都是为不断变化的世界奠定文化能力、语言技能、研究能力和写作技能的基础。因此,通过在线写作的交流被证明是一种高度创新的学习方法,要求教授和学生高度专注和参与。由于我们在一般的人文学科和德语研究中特别强调写作技巧,这种方法是成功的。通过这样的聊天室教授德语高级文学课程一开始被证明是具有挑战性的,但后来由于学生和老师的密集写作活动,它的效率很高。对于出勤(每节课一次、两次或三次)、小测验和多项选择考试,Top Hat也非常有用。由于问题可以很容易地发布在网上——也可以在课堂上发布——学生也可以通过为整个班级制定讨论问题来鼓励自己参与到教学过程中来。
