Colleges in Corona Mortis: The offensive limitations of the digital teaching

Since mid-March, the German students have Online teaching. Teachers are always present in a better to, to use an elegant balance between the various platforms, switches, and interactive Tools to. However, something Essential, namely, the presence is missing. Now the power of the dialogue in shows of learning, and here the path leads directly from the digital discourses of Habermas and learning theorists such as Ruf and Gallin to Socrates. His teaching in the "dialogues" is subject-oriented and content– oriented, in that it has quite a bit of the often-maligned service.

But teaching is not always of service, service to the people? The daily, weekly struggle, the understand To the value and usefulness of the complex-mediated content – and, if we talk of colleges, also apply?
